I was fortunate in that I was never bitten by the dual D700 rendering bug but of late it has been running very hot. I’ve not bought a desktop machine since my December 2013 Mac Pro trash can. So here are some thoughts and of course I welcome suggestions, comments and critiques before I hit the add to cart button. It’s not if a spinning drive will die, it’s when.

Like the blogger who discussed the Promise Pegasus MPX module raid and observed that it would be highly unlikely one would need to access the unit to replace a drive. Like all of you interested in Apple’s new beast, I’ve been watching videos from studio pros, bloggers, take-it-apart sites and even the uninformed seeking to inform. I am working on configuring my Mac Pro 2019 in anticipation of some (sorely needed) funding arriving in January, 2020.Īnd yes, I’ll post my observations once my system is in place along with the obligatory unboxing video, which I promise to make as uninspiring as every other unboxing video.

What are the best options if you want a machine that will do the business, won't become obsolete quickly, but offers the best bang for the buck? The new Mac Pro is available with a large number of configuration options.
