Reconnect the power cable, and power the Mac Pro back on. Step 7: Reinstall the aluminum housing and lock the latch on top of the housing in place. Step 6: Click each DIMM cover back in place. Insert the DIMM module gently until the bottom edge is touching the gold contacts, and then apply additional force to fully insert the DIMM module, which will also click the ejector tabs in place. Step 5: Locate an empty DIMM slot and align the DIMM with the slot to match the notch position and connectors. Remove it straight out of the slot, and place the module in an electrostatic discharge protective bag.
Step 4: If you need to remove DIMMs to support your desired configuration, use the DIMM ejectors on each side of the module to eject the DIMM. Slide the DIMM cover locks to the left, and remove the DIMM covers. Step 3: Locate the memory module area, which is on the opposite side of the PCIe expansion slots. Step 2: Touch the metal housing on the outside of the Mac Pro to discharge any static electricity. Step 1: Power down your Mac Pro, unplug the power cable and remove the aluminum housing to reveal the machine’s internal components. For more information, be sure to read Apple’s guide.

In the case of a mixed configuration, You’ll want to start to install the smallest memory pair in the first channel and work your way up to the larger memory pair. If your DIMM modules aren’t the same capacity across the board, you’ll want to follow Apple’s guidelines to install memory for mixed capacities. Apple includes handy illustrations inside the DIMM covers to show you supported configurations. For the best memory performance, you’ll want to ensure that your memory is installed in the proper configuration based on channels. The Mac Pro supports up to 12 DIMM modules across six memory channel pairs. Note: If you’re upgrading a Mac Pro with the 8-core Xeon-W CPU, the 2933 RAM will be automatically downclocked to 2666MHz, since the 8-core CPU doesn’t support the faster memory speeds. You don’t necessarily have to use Nemix RAM, but I’ve personally verified that it works, and Nemix offers a lifetime warranty for memory. For example, they sell a 64GB (2x32GB) R-DIMM config, and a 256GB (4圆4GB) LR-DIMM config, among several others. Nemix sells various memory configs on Amazon that meet Apple’s criteria. You can look at the build-to-order page to determine the type of DIMM modules inside your Mac Pro. DIMM modules with 64GB and higher density are LR-DIMM modules. DIMMs with heatsinks are not supported and may damage the DIMM mechanism.ĭIMM modules with 32GB and lesser density are R-DIMM Modules.Use the same size memory modules across all slots to maximize performance.Registered (R-DIMM) or Load-Reduced DIMM (LR-DIMM).

The good news is that the Mac Pro is probably the easiest Mac to upgrade as far as RAM is concerned. In other words, you can save a significant amount of money by not upgrading your Mac Pro memory during Apple’s build-to-order process, and buying the memory from a third-party and upgrading yourself. Granted, Apple’s kit does lend added flexibility by including super-high density 128GB modules, which will allow you to install more DIMM modules, but it’s still a wide gulf in price between these two similar configurations. You can save nearly $5000 by purchasing Nemix’s 256GB upgrade kit via Amazon instead. You can save around $800 by going the third party route and buying 64GB to add to the existing 32GB.Įxample 2: Apple charges $6000 for its post-purchase 256GB memory upgrade kit. Oftentimes, Apple will source the memory from the same manufacturer as these third parties, meaning there’s no real difference in memory performance.Įxample 1: To upgrade to 96GB during the build to order process, Apple charges $1000. Save a whole lot of money with a DIY Mac Pro RAM upgradeĪpple, like always, charges a ridiculous amount of money for memory when compared to third-parties. Watch our video walkthrough for the details. In this post and hands-on video, we’ll show you how easy it is to upgrade Mac Pro RAM yourself. Today we tested that theory and experienced positive results. Specifically, we conjectured that, like other Apple desktop machines, it would be possible to upgrade Mac Pro RAM ourselves and save a lot of money in the process. Last week we posted a speculation piece about the now-available Mac Pro.
