Mac Pro is the only option for a PCIe card that Apple won't sign a driver kext for (NVIDIA cards, for example - and they do have an aarch64 driver thanks to the Tegra family!). Since Asahi doesn't support Thunderbolt yet, you can't use enclosures on Studio. Gotta say the other day I was thinking about the Mac Pro and even at only 192GB of memory, 20P/4E with some Optane SSDs and some flash behind it would absolutely tear through postgres workloads, I bet.Įveryone is dumping on Mac Pro for regressing on memory capacity (after spending the last 2 years dumping on the "$50k mac" and comparing it against Threadripper builds that top out at 256GB), and asking why Mac Pro instead of Studio. Thunderbolt not working is kind of a deal killer, for example. And honestly, for laptops, the answer so far is probably still "not". It’s just a question of whether it’s good enough for you or not. As long as Martin and others are willing to keep running the project there’s work to be done. And there will always be more generations of hardware. Ideally, Asahi would never be finished any more than Debian is.
