    Did any of you choose an 8TB internal SSD?

    I’m nearing retirement and face a daunting prospect: downsizing a HomeLab. (First World problem for sure.) I’m hoping to retire to a warm tropical island and I think my next Mac has to be a MacBook Pro as that’s my best hope for repairability in a place with potentially limited computer...

    Hello all, I'm working with large Excel files containing around 300MB and over half a million rows and around 80 columns. I'm currently on the M2 Air (24GB Ram, 512GB SSD), and opening a file of that size takes around 1 minute. Whenever I work inside those files, I often get that spinning wheel...

    Monitor for new Mac Studio

    Having ordered a Mac Studio, I knew I’d need a new monitor. My existing ones are old 1080p screens which, attached to my MBP don’t look all that great. With the MBP I can use its own screen for work, and the external screens to dump things on that I only need to glance at, but the Studio...

    Will the M5 MacBook Pro Feature Apple’s C1 5G Modem?

    The most important feature by far in today’s iPhone 16E is Apple’s first party 5G modem. This paves the way for the M5 MacBook Pro to possibly include a built-in cellular option for the first time — a long overdue feature. Will this change your purchase plans for the M4 MacBook Pro?

    What’s the Consensus on Protective Shells?

    Protective shells don't seem popular in this forum given the dearth of messages. The argument in favor is obvious. But do these shells damage a MacBook Pro over time because of the extra weight on the hinge or the pressure on the display from the plastic fasteners? Are soft shells safer than...

    Customizing low power mode

    From reading around, lower power mode on MacBooks: Reduces CPU performance Lowers screen brightness Turns off Promotion (disables 120Hz refresh rate) Lowers fan noise (by reducing heat output) Apple doesn't seem to actually specify any of this. Has anyone found a way to customize what exactly...

    Has anyone repasted M1, M2, M3, M4 MBPs?

    I know repasting is not really necessary as these Apple silicon chips run pretty cool. However, the MAX machines can run into thermal throttling, so I'm curious if anyone has done it and what their experience with this was in terms of temp differences and difficulty, etc. I had a hell of a time...
