Options of the SSD in late 2013 Mac Pro update?
Options of the SSD in late 2013 Mac Pro update?
Mac Pro has 256 GB which is almost full despite the displacement of all the large files (Photos, downloads, etc.) out of the disc. I'm at a point where the Player update seems to be a must.
OWC option seems a bit of a hack using a slower drive and a controller.
https://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Mac-Pro/2013
MCETECH claims to use a new disk allowed Apple with trim shoring and the ability of bootcamp to use Windows (important to me).
There are eBay sellers who claim to use the running game in recent versions of the end of 2013 Mac Pro.
and
two sellers have a very high rating, but I don't trust eBay.
The MCETECH seems to ensure ongoing compatibility as it is a part of Apple.
Any ideas or experiences with the above or other good known options?
OWC option seems a bit of a hack using a slower drive and a controller.
I think you're bad read the OWC page. They propose to replace the internal SSD stick with their largest capacity SSD stick. The external box is only for you to continue to use the original USB key (perfect condition) as an external drive, if you wish.

Screen Dell 5 k with 2013 Mac Pro in El Capitan
So, after years of waiting for Apple to make a screen that mocks use of the capabilities of the Mac Pro, I gave up and bought the Dell UP2715K 27 inch monitor UltraSharp Ultra-HD 5 K.
It uses two cables in parallel to transmit the signal from k 5. There's help on the Dell site and apparently it works 5 k with the Mac Pro 2013 in respect of Yosemite, but there is no mention of El Captain (why type this ridiculous name of OSX makes me so angry).
Thus, the question, someone at - it operate under El captain to 5 K with the 2013 Mac Pro garbage.
Thank you

CS5 will still support the MCE Blu - ray on Mac Pro Player?
It's basically my question:
CS5 will still support the MCE Blu - ray on Mac Pro Player?
It is y harly any info the hardware on the web site of Adobe support more. It's just all hype sales! They used to tell you which disks have been supported, but now that still seems to just be an afterthought in CS5, there is not ehardware in detail everything that is taken in charge and what is not...
This new MCE Blu - ray player looks like a wonderful solution, but only if Encore CS5 on Mac would support it.
Thank you!
I am positive that your Mac Pro has the connectors. The SATA cable it can be somewhat difficult if you're not comfortable deleting some parts with a screwdriver, but I found it very easy.
Cables SATA sitting around, I had had a little long boxes on the ends of the connector forcing me to have to remove a small amount of plastic from the piece of fan housing. I think that if you buy a kit from OWC cable they include cables that are lower profile but whatever it is, it's not too bad. I just use a dremel to remove a small piece about 1 "x 1" directly above the ports. "
Here are some instructions I found: http://www.newertech.com/downloads/nwtmpqxe32.pdf (Note: the pages in this guide are all mixed!) These guys here sell a kit that delivers these unused ports of SATA to eSATA ports.
You will see that they have low profile cable I was referring to that and so they didn't need to cut the case fan at all. I would say just OWC (www.macsales.com), because they know what you are looking for and you can sell a kit that has the cables you need, including 4-pin-power to SATA power. I recommend you to install the two cables while you're here, so if you later decide to add another SATA drive or an SSD, you will not need to take off again. BTW, add an OCZ Vertex 2 60 GB SSd drive as my boot drive for the OS and applications has been the single most visible upgrade I did and makes the Mac Pro just smoke! Same value as I just pasted the small SSD up there in the optical Bay without a mounting kit, and it works great!
In all honesty, theough, the external enclosure for Blu - Ray works well and is easier to access the drive, because it is now located on my desktop. If you're uncomfortable to disassemble your machine just get quadruple housing interface with the chip set Oxford 934DSB that I can guarantee you that it works out of the box. It cost $140 for the whole machine, not bad compared to the alternatives.
The reader is this: LG WH10LS30. Looks like it's still on sale for Newegg $79 until the end of the year.
Housing I have is the following: BYTECC ME535-Limited-BK. Another $60. The OWC, looks a lot prettier in a Mac environment but costs $40 more for the same features all in brushed aluminium.
I've been creating and burning with yet but Roxio Toast 10 Titanium burns and the authors of the Blu - Ray just wanted to make a CD/DVD
Good luck!

White lines appear on the videos from my new Mac Pro - why?
Hello
I am the proud owner of a Mac Pro 2.7 GHz 12 - Core Intel Xeon E5 / 64 gig RAM / 2 X AMD over-pants D700 6144 MB running on OS X 10.9.3 (13 D 65).
I use the last CC version, but also Red Giant Magic Bullet LOOKS to color grade my videos (on an adjustment layer). I have 3 HDD (1 SSD in the computer with the programs + 1 external (Thunderbold) G-RAID for cache files + 1 external Pegasus R6 2 (Thunderbolt 2) for images).
Sometimes, when reading (but more often during export into Media Encoder) white lines appear on the video (see image below). Why?
Is this a problem first? Is something wrong with my Mac? I reinstalled everything from scratch but the problem remains...
I worked with the same programs on my previous iMac and I didn't have this problem.
Any idea?

It is a problem that is known at this stage and is still under investigation by the folks at Adobe. As they work through it, move your projects to the software rendering and move the SOUL to software exports. It may take longer to work through things, but you avoid the strange lines.

my mac pro is backup in the capsule of time even when I was at work, which means that the time capsule is consumed my data plan. Can anyone suggest a way I can have it the backup only when my mac pro and time capsule is in the same local wifi
If the Time Capsule and MacBook Pros are not on the same network, the MacBook is not backup in the time Capsule. You probably see what snapshots leaving MacBook on the local disk, until the two are reconnected. If you don't want that to happen, disable Time Machine on a different network.
Good day.

I deleted the boot camp trying to resize the hard drive on my mac pro book. now, the computer does not start without a bootable device, which I don't have, and any download must be on a windows machine. Can anyone help

2 have you tried local restore or recovery of the Internet? - OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support . Mac with built-in optical drives may need 'Gray' disks to boot the system.

I have a Mac Pro (mid 2010) and spin El Capitan (10.11.5). I have an SSD that I boot OSX of. I have a 4 TB harddrive that store data on. And I just installed a Virgin SSD (same type as my drive OSX) I want to install Windows 8 on. When you run Bootcamp, it only gives me the option to install Windows on my hard drive of 4 TB. He's going right to the start screen of the screen asking me how large, I would like to partition. No SSD is given as an option. The new SSD is shown in disk utility and in the Finder. I tried to format it in FAT, ExFAT, and OS X Extended, but it is not yet appear in bootcamp. I also tried to boot from the installation DVD, but nothing seemed to happen. What should I do?
If the SSD (s) is not connected directly to the MacPro SATA connectors, you will have problems. Of your SSD are supported on a SATA connection?

Passage to the SSD for late 2008 MacBook for editing video: Samsung 850EVO or Pro?
Hello
There are a lot of things out there on the upgrade the bowels of SSD and I narrowed my choice to Samsung 850 Evo or Pro, but there are some details that I found not covered elsewhere. The idea is to give to my MacBook Pro a few years in addition to be able to edit HD video (currently, it slows to a halt). I'm also upgrading to 8 GB of RAM.
My questions are: both the EVO 850 and 850 Pro actually work in my model, old as it is?
I would notice the difference between the two while editing video, taking into account the difference and compatibility issues/limitations of price? (Limits of SATA would effectively slow the levels of the EVO Pro?)
If/when I get ahead, it is advisable to keep my entire modification on a with the main files external HARD drive, or should I keep makes it / cache on the SSD drive?
Here are my specs:
MacBook Pro (15 inch, late 2008)
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory
Macintosh HD boot disk
NVIDIA GeForce 9400 M 256 MB graphics card
Running OS X El Capitan 10.11.5.
Please keep in mind, I am a techno-idiot and 90% of the above words I learned again in the last two days!
Thanks in anticipation,
Graeme.

Probably not. You willing MBP of SATA2 connectivity and the full potential of each SSD not happen.

It's your choice. If the capacity of SSDS is quite large, personally, I like to keep all data on a single disc, but maybe it's not convenient.
Ciao.

not enough options for the SSD drives?
I intend to buy a desktop XPS 8700 special edition. I am disappointed that it doesn't give options for this model - for hard drives, only "2 TB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive 6.0 Gb/s + 256 GB SSD"-which is obviously a good combination, but for me, I think that a smaller SSD drive would be nice. "" Otherwise, I like the rest of the system. A friend who built his own PC says it has installed an SSD of 128 G and it is sufficiently large with Win8, MS Office, Photoshop and other large programs installed.
So it of just a comment, is not a problem, but I hope that Dell would offer more options, including a drive to 3 or 4. A Dell technician suggested going to road work stations - but when I looked there, I was a little confused on the readers - workstations all seem to have several readers, probably for Raid configurations, which is something over my head and on my needs.
Or is it a good idea to have a lot of free space on the SSD drive?
Hi Hellogoodby,
Thanks for your comments. It isn't that much of a difference in cost between the 128 GB and 256 GB SSD. Dell is probably buying in bulk from the right and customer demand now, most people want 256 GB or more. You are absolutely right that 128 GB is plenty for the OS and applications. I have a 250 GB Samsung Evo and have used less than 50 GB for the operating system, office and all my other apps.

How can I upgrade (where to buy) the SSD storage for my macbook pro retina 15 "?
I currently have 256GB on my mac, which is far from enough. as far as I know, the macbook pro get a SSD sata-m and I would buy more. I can buy it on the Apple site?
Apple does not sell any upgrade to the MacBook Pro retina. If you want to upgrade the internal memory, the connector is not standard m-SATA so your options are limited. One of the few places improvements are available is MacSales.com, who is a seller very good reputation (I bought many improvements to them):
OWC SSD Flash storage upgrades - MacBook Pro with the retina 13 "& 15" 2012 - beginning 2013
On this page, you'll see also that they sell a pen, so that you can use the drive out you of your Mac as an external drive.

end of 2013 Mac Pro self begins with red light under DIMM 3
My end of 2013 "trash" Mac Pro has an intermittent problem on start up - this can take up to 8 auto restarts before it starts to fully operational status. During these reboots red lights are visible through the base, in the area of the 3 & 4 DIMM slots. This happens in about 3-4 times when the Mac Pro is started first thing in the morning. Sometimes - but rarely - it will also restart after a period of normal operation.
Run diagnostics and, before one of the operations described below, this indicates that all was well but the 2 just many times where I ran diagnosis, he pointed out that no WiFi interface has been installed. Have also run Memtest that since several days of testing, running as a single user with multiple passes, says memory all OK.
Have tried resetting the SMC both NVRAM and update of the OS. Removed and reinstall the RAM modules. After the reinstallation of modules, first start only registered DIMM 1 & 2 modules. There seems to be no problem with the seating, nothing loose or place and taken liberation were entirely home. Next and all subsequent boots saved all 4 modules.
A day of immediate bootups without problem but then, first thing this morning, had two cottages restarts during startup. I gave the 2nd boot press / press and hold the 'on' then booted diagnosis - no problem not indicated. On the startup resulting, everything was fine.
I guess the problem is in, either the GPU or with 3 & 4 DIMM slots. Can someone tell me the meaning of red lights? Diagnosis would be easier if I knew.

Hello Bob,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.
I see that you have found a red flashing in the 3 & 4 DIMM slots. Typically, this indicates a bad RAM module or the module is not seated properly. I see you have already done the troubleshooting that I would have recommended. So, unless you have third-party RAM installed in your Mac Pro, I suggest you take a look at the following link to access the service options for your computer.

No noise in Bootcamp with 2013 Mac Pro Windows 10 X 64
Hi all
Has anyone else had problems with getting audio playback works fine on a Mac Pro 2013 running 10 X 64 Windows at retail. I know that the speaker in my Mac works because it works fine on OS X and chimes on boot up but Windows there is not a glance. I did all the basics such as checking things in Manager devices etc. All Bootcamp support software are installed but nothing. I'm a total loss of any any input would be appreciated.
Thank you
John
As Apple says have you tried:
If some features do not work when you start your Mac in Windows 10, try to reinstall the Boot Camp support software to use Boot Camp Assistant.

User interface artifacts in beta of Mac OS Sierra on 2013 Mac Pro
I try the beta version of Mac OS Sierra on my Mac Pro 2013, and when you scroll brushes or other elements of the user interface, there are artifacts that remain on the list that make it difficult to see. The problem persists even after disabling processing GPU in Photoshop and restart. Clues as to what might be the cause, or someone else has this problem? Any other apps don't do this on my mac.
If there is anything that I've learned, is not posting on a forum like this search for information or to investigate a problem that may occur with future updates. You'll just get taught as you do not know what a beta is.
