Apple has discontinued the Mac Pro and has removed the machine from its website, reports 9to5Mac. Apple said it does not plan to design a new version of the Mac Pro, and no new model will be coming in the future. The Mac Pro was last updated in 2023, which was when Apple added an M2 Ultra Apple silicon chip, but the chassis has not been refreshed since 2019.
Yes, and the pros who use these for audio and video production were historically using a lot of specialty cards on PCIe but the impression I had was the support wasn’t great for the M-series Mac Pros, that the chips didn’t have good support for it because that was the only model using it
Apple neglecting its loyal core market of creative professionals.
There are now so many hubs like this one to make a Mac Studio of Mac mini work for a demanding setting with extra ports, faster networking, card readers, space for SSDs, more monitor connections, etc.
It’s a really crowded market of very similar products, some great, some pretty bad.
Not the best user experience.
Yes, it really has us back to the same problems we had with the trash can Mac Pros: adapter rat’s nests on our desks. Having no Macs with expandable internal storage I feel is a negative for heavy pro users.
