Introduction |
This guide shows how to open up your Mac Pro to replace or install additional RAM modules. You can complete this procedure without using any tools. | | '''Before you begin, be sure to purchase the correct RAM modules.''' The Mac Pro supports registered (R-DIMM) and Load-Reduced (LR-DIMM) RAM. You—but you ''cannot'' mix R-DIMMs and LR-DIMMs in a single computer. Apple installs R-DIMMs in Mac Pros configured with 192GB of RAM or less; setups with more than 192GB will have LR-DIMMs instead. | | In addition, 8-core Mac Pros will come with 2666MHz (PC4-21300) RAM installed, while other models will have 2933 MHz (PC4-23400) RAM. You ''can'' install RAM modules with different clock ratings into the same Mac Pro.
