It's stated in multiple places on Apple.com, including in the order specs for all the Arm based machines. Who knows if the M1 might support more in future or not, but it's got what looks like custom memory packaging. So many questions there, is it DDR4, DDR5, etc. So I expect only soldered to Mobo or packaged multi-chip carrier solutions, so likely not at all user upgradeable. We'll see when these systems start being torn down.

As I said in another thread, for now the 16GB memory limit gives Avid more time to sort out their stuff... but I also hope they do mention an Arm roadmap on Thursday.
