I thought I had to get the Ultra for 64GB RAM so that's good news.
What are you doing for audio and MIDI interface?
Would be great if OWC comes up with something by the time I’m ready to buy which I think may be October or so. I could get the smallest drive possible and then upgrade myself. One can hope.HCMarkus wrote:You DO recall correctly Bob!
But it appears the SSD slots (2 additional ones in an Ultra) are not standard form factor and will thus require a custom SSD package. T2 is another question here... but we may still be talking about a good project for OWC to work on.
If you didn’ know, PCI NVMe drives come in lengths as short as 30 mm. Hard to tell from the video what the Mac Studio uses; I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s proprietary, though. In that case, I doubt OWC will sell replacements because they’d have to get them from Apple. (From what I’ve seen, it appears OWC‘s SSD products use standard form factors.)
Yeah, I was wondering that too. And whether the M1 Max version has the 2nd slot.James Steele wrote: ↑Sat Mar 19, 2022 2:27 am Does that mean you could have TWO internal drives?? Hmmmm
I was really wanting at least a sped up version of his putting it all back together and then firing it up... just for closure (no pun intended).James Steele wrote: ↑Sat Mar 19, 2022 2:27 am Watching that tear down video now. Geez… I’d be terrified digging into something new and expensive like that. What was interesting to me is there was an *extra* unused connector for an SSD? Does that mean you could have TWO internal drives?? Hmmmm
