Teardown by Max Tech, Mac Studio's SSD storage is not soldered in place and can be upgraded.
In a detailed teardown video of the new Mac Studio, Max Tech reveals that the Mac Studio’s SSD storage is located in two slots, and since there’s no soldering, it’s relatively easy to remove or replace. A single SSD can be swapped between the two slots and appears to be modular.

On its website, Apple claims that the Mac Studio's SSD storage is "not user accessible" and encourages users to allocate enough storage to the device at the time of purchase. This may be because the internals of Mac Studio are still difficult to access from the outside. A rubber ring on the bottom of the machine must be removed to expose the four screws that provide a way to open the device, but once inside, the SSD storage is fairly easy to access and remove.
Max Tech suggests Apple could offer SSD storage upgrades in the future, similar to the kits it launched in mid-2020 to upgrade Mac Pro storage, but the ease of access may only be used for repairs to make it more convenient for repair technicians to remove and replace the SSD.
The SSD storage in Apple's other custom silicon-based Macs, such as the MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac mini, is soldered in place and cannot be easily upgraded, although some skilled technicians have attempted to do so.
