M4 Mac mini cluster saving thousands per month

We’re on monthly billing with Google Cloud. I maxed out most of the specs on the Mac mini but I don’t think I ended up needing to. I wasn’t sure what the hardware requirements would end up being so I erred on the side of over-provisioning: M4 Pro chip with 14‑core CPU, 20‑core GPU, 16-core Neural En

New NAS product pages are up!

M4 Mac Mini on Amazon is $499. Add the UNAS Pro for another $499. You've got a more powerful compute module with more bays available in a rack-mount setup for less than the Synology RS822+.

Oh that’s too bad. You should have bought a bigger SSD

Weird because I have a T7 I use for music production and I’ve been getting slow disk/overload errors in logic on an M4 Pro Mac mini with 24GB ram. That machine is more than capable of what I’m throwing at it and I’ve had 2015 Intel MacBooks and M1 MacBooks work larger projects off the same drive fin

M4 Pro Mini

I’m jealous!! I got the base M4 Pro Mac Mini last year and I love it. But to have 64GB RAM and 2TB storage would be awesome!! And especially not having to pay the vary large price for that config. Nice!

Is this a good deal?

NO. Mac Mini M4 New is $769 https://amzn.to/3RVZMgZ with much faster SSD and newest gen processor. If you are going to run LLMs on it, DONOT buy M1.

M4 32gb 512gb or M4 pro 24gb 512gb

Pro has much faster RAM AND SSD .. NO EXTERNAL DRIVE WILL READ/WRITE FASTER THAN AN INTERNAL SSD as internal SSD is used in most if not all regular writes/reads. In a Mac, file caching occurs in both RAM and on the SSD. 256 GB SSD writes at 1,500-2,000 MB/s. It will constrain effective speed of USB4

Question about SSD upgrade on the M4 Mac Mini

Incorrect. Legally, opening and installing an aftermarket nand memory module does NOT automatically void your warranty. Of course Apple does not warranty non-original parts. Under US law, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protects consumers' rights to open their devices and use third-party parts. In th

Still getting system overloads after upgrading computers

I only know what you’ve told me so based on that I’m making some guesses: The project you’re in maybe isn’t so modestly sized. Or maybe you’re running too many plugins. Everyone thinks 10 plugins per track on a 50 track session is normal. If you need all that then it’s time to start freezing tracks.

Got my mac mini m4, suggestions on new setup

When I upgraded from my base M1 Mac Mini, I used a Time Machine backup cluttered with “system data” that I did not need and made my new M4 base Mac Mini unusable as it was maxed on storage space right out of the gate. 72 gb of it was messages so I have to use it signed out of iMessage. When I looked
