dug out my early 2015 macbook pro to use as a hermes server. it couldn't boot into recovery mode because some key was stuck on physical keyboard, so I disassembled it to disconnect the ribbon cable.
once open I saw a removable nic, ssd and battery, which I swapped once myself and I am pretty sure the previous owner swapped it, and was like damn they called this unrepairable back in the day
