    Mac Studio with 20 Cores 128GB and 8TB SSD arrived!

    Ordered March 17 and it was shipped May 30 from Shenzhen, but held for 3 days in Hong Kong. 78 days wait. First tests were SSD speeds, and they were twice those from 2019 Mac Pro. (both had the 8TB option) Not too long ago, 3-4 years when 8TB SSD by themselves were over 20K USD. now under 4K...

    Battery Warning on Mac Studio shipping package

    Why is there a battery warning? The clock battery? Logitech keyboard and mouse have much bigger batteries and there are no warnings in their packaging.

    Should we use multiple hard drives for Mac Studio Video Editing

    In years past if we had 2 or 3 hard drives for video editing it improved workflow and allowed smoother scrubbing, etc. on some systems. With the M1 Max Mac Studio, for 4K and 8K video editing, does the system perform better with a 2TB internal SSD and no externals... OR... would it benefit...

    Would 16" be much more useful as a third monitor than 14"?

    Hi! I'm currently using a 2017 27" iMac for software development, and I'm thinking of buying a new Macbook (m1pro 32gb 1TB). Like many people, I'm having a hard time between 14" and 16". In my situation it's too hard to decision. - 16" is quite heavy, but I'll probably use it 95-98% of...

    Screen suggestions for the Mac Studio?

    Hi all, I was hoping to get some opinions regarding a screen that complements the Mac Studio. Yes, in a perfect world I would purchase the Apple Studio Display but in Australia, this cost a "reasonable" (not) $2499. So this is unfortunately out of my price range and lives in fantasy land. I'm...

    Mac Studio – Wake from sleep – Desktop picture not stretching to fill Desktop

    On wake from sleep the Mac Studio's Desktop Picture is shown in actual resolution instead of stretched to fit screen. For example, a picture which is 2059 × 1371 is shown at that resolution on a Studio Display screen and so only fills about 60% of the screen area. It starts with the picture...

    Interesting article: M1 Thunderbolt ports don’t fully support USB 3.1 Gen 2

    I just came across this article from yesterday, which is making my search for an external HDD and SDD enclosure even more complicated. I was just about to order a Sabrent 4-bay enclosure (+ SSD brackets), but now I am not so sure. I don't really need Thunderbolt for my SATA HDDs and SDDs but I...

    Mn Pro in the Mac Studio...?

    I have been going over the numbers for a Mn Pro Mac mini, and I will finally admit defeat...! ;^p At this point it seems the only logical solution might be for the Mac mini to remain the domain of the base Mn SoC, and the Mn Pro SoC is added as a low-end option for the Mac Studio chassis...?

    So, Who is going to make the first mount for Mac Mini/Studio for Studio Display to make it look like an iMac?

    Actually I was expecting to see such a mount already but seems like nobody came up with a product yet. Even from 3D geeks. Would you use that kind of mount to hang your Mac Mini/Studio at the back of the Studio Display? Mac Studio might be harder to do due its uneven weight distribution and...
