Mac Pro Late 2013 Upgrades

Announced in Late 2013, the new model Mac Pro was a radical departure from the previous tower model. Instead of a large tower workstation with PCI Express expansion and graphics slots and 4 bays for internal 3.5" drives, then new model is in a slim black cylindrical case with a single internal SSD. Additional storage and peripherals are all done via its Thunderbolt 2 ports.

The Mac Pro Late 2013 was released built around 4 main CPU configurations, a quad core 3.7GHz, a 6 Core 3.5GHz, an 8 core 3.0GHz and a 12 core 2.7GHz. Apple specs here.

The cylindrical case design makes the Mac Pro 2013 unique and unmistakeable.

The Mac Pro Late 2013 was released built around 4 main CPU configurations, a quad core 3.7GHz, a 6 Core 3.5GHz, an 8 core 3.0GHz and a 12 core 2.7GHz. It has a single internal SSD and 4 slots for DDR3 ECC DIMM 1866MHz RAM. Apple specs here.

The Mac Pro Late 2013 has 4 memory sockets and can take up to 128GB of RAM in 4 x 32GB modules. However using 32GB modules will reduce the memory bus speed from 1866MHz to 1333MHz (in the 4 core, 6 core, 8 core models) or 800MHz (in the 12 core model). We do not yet have 32GB modules available for purchase, so the maximum we can supply at present is 64GB in 4 x 16GB modules.

Please note that the 4GB and 8GB modules are unregistered while the 16GB modules are registered. This is the same for the stock Apple memory, and registered and non-registered RAM cannot be mixed. So if you wish to use 16GB modules, all smaller modules will need to be removed.

The Mac Pro Late 2013 does not have an internal optical drive.

Internally the Mac Pro has a single PCIe attached SSD. Below are the upgrades we have available for this internal drive. Larger amounts of storage should be attached externally via Thunderbolt.
