    NVIDIA Pascal in 2018 Mac Pro

    Will 5,1 be on the chopping block for the next macOS?

    4,1 isn't compatible with Sierra out of the box. Will 5,1 suffer the same fate next year? I'd think it likely were it not for the minor revision the 5,1 series received in 2012, nearly identical to the 2010 models. Or would Apple abandon the 2010 Mac Pro and support the 2012s?* * That said...

    PCI Sata 3 or PCI Sata express for MacPro 4.1

    Hi, I'm upgrading my MacPro but I would need your advise between getting a SSD 2.5" with a PCI SATA 3 or a PCI express with a M.2 Ssd. My computer runs on El Capitan and I'll install El Capitan on it (perhaps window). Which of those two solutions works out of the box? Thanks !
