The eMMC is not paired to CPU, I have replaced mine with a 64 GB one. Had to dump data from the original, restore it to the new one and use some tools (including patched hekate) to repartition it. I'm keeping the original module as a backup
You’re correct, I was misremembering (it’s been awhile)
The prodinfo/console identifier is on the emmc and in situations where the console was dead or not hacked this couldn’t be dumped (although looking it up now it appears there are methods to extract prodinfo from dead emmc or generate a fake one that will get you banned but make the console boot).
