The PINEBOOK Pro M.2/NGFF NVMe SSD Interface Adapter

    Perhaps some time in the future,  The could put the SPI module in a socket, (Like they do the EMMc module)  ?

The SPI should eventually, when the firmware is a bit more mature, take on the same role as the BIOS chip in your PC. In other words apart from occasional firmware upgrades you leave it well alone.

Of course that's only a sane default. The PBP hardware is well documented and designed for hacking so the SPI can be used for whatever the user chooses but it does make me curious. What would you do with a socketed SPI flash that you can't do with the soldered down one?

   Maybe    You could purchase the SPI module with the desired boot specifications pre-loaded on it    ?
             Certainly much simpler than acquiring the equipment,   and the skills to write the correct code one self.
