Others have pointed out that the way memory is configured in the new Macs makes a significant difference to the amount of RAM you need. Is my thinking on this upgrade sound? Is running DP and all my plug-ins as well as hosting all my current project audio files on one internal SSD the way to go? I am trying to help reduce any current bottlenecks.Ī number of people have dismissed the current crop of smaller new Macs because of the 16G RAM limit. More powerful graphics card (16GB - mainly for video work)ĤTB internal SSD - for my current Mac HD data (around 1TB inc DP and other audio & video applications) & my 'music and sound design' folder (holding all my current music projects and libraries etc.) which is currently hosted on an external RAID.
I am considering these upgrades beyond a new entry level Mac Pro:Ĥ8GB of RAM (or poss 64GB but could add later) DP can be quite sluggish and crashes every now and then with this big project. I have seen that my current chunks are using just over 32GB of my RAM. I am working with pretty hefty DP projects with orchestral libraries and a bunch of plug-ins as well as 96k/24 bit audio.
BEST RAM UPGRADE FOR MAC MINI 2012 PRO
I am looking to upgrade to a new generation Mac Pro and since I have a limited budget I am carefully considering any areas that I should upgrade beyond the entry level machine. I currently have a Late 2013 Mac Pro with 64GB of RAM and ext RAID 0 drives for my plug-ins, media and sample libraries etc.
