Upgraded every old MacBook (2009pro, 2015 pro) I had with bigger harddrives and did small repairs with ifixit instructions. But you notice they get less repairable over time. The 2009 thing was built like a tank and you could upgrade ram, replace a broken GPU and this thing over all felt very repairable. I still works but isn't that useful any more 16 years after release. 2015 was way less repairable.

Yeah sure, repairing devices got harder over years and some devices simply aren't repairable at all (at least not for laypeople who aren't training or experienced in certain techniques like soldering) or you need very special equipment. But the manuals are less of a problem.
