Prior to the M1 Mac Mini I had a 2013 MacBook Pro with 16GB ram but only the 512GB SSD. Ian will probably have his own opinion, but in my view it really depends on how you tend to use the internal SSD. On the otherhand LrD is now much more frugal with how much memory the GPU takes for itself. My personal experience with three M1 Macs (Mac mini M1 8-core CPU and GPU, 16GB memory, 1TB SSD, MacBook Pro M1 Pro 10-core CPU, 16-core GPU, 32GB memory, 2TB SSD, Mac M1 Ultra 20-core CPU, 48-core GPU, 64GB memory, 1TB SSD) is that LrC will use every byte of memory available and then some to support the GPU. The takeaway from above is that Apple don't make the decision making process easy, especially when customers try to factor in what's best approach to future proofing. It's also worth noting that 512GB SSD on M2 Mac mini is using only one SSD chip, which has been found to be slower than the same size of SSD on M1 based systems, which use two 256GB SSD paired as RAID 0. For an extra $100 the OP could get the base Mac Studio M1 Max (10-core CPU, 24-core GPU, 32GB memory and 512GB SSD). So, the price for M2 Pro plus 1TB SSD would be $1899. Many users are also satisfied with the speed and think they couldn't go any faster.Ī changeover is just difficult if you have bet on the wrong horse.I don't disagree, but I try to avoid spending other peoples moneyįor example, 32GB is only available if the OP steps up to the base M2 Pro version (10-core CPU and 16-core GPU). The problem is known - but due to the large fan base, the C1 is not seen as such - thanks to successful marketing.

That's why I bought a Mac Studio with 64GB - so I'm disappointed with how slow C1 is. It also seems that there are special problems with loading Sony uncompressed and Sony Lossless (Nikon Z9 loads faster) - or loading takes 1'. The C1 support wrote to me that the iMac is not a Pro device, the graphics card is too slow (R9 M295X Grafikprozessor mit 4 GB). Yes, it is known that the C1 requires a lot of video memory. Ein umstieg ist halt schwierieg wenn man aufs flasche Pferd gesetzt hat. Viele Benutzer sind auch vorkommen zufrieden mit der Geschwindigkeit und er Meinung er ginge nicht schneller. Daher hab ich eine Mac Studio mit 64GB erworben - dementsprechend enttäuscht bin ich wie langsam C1 ist.ĭas Problem ist bekannt - wird aber auf Grund der gossen Fanbase die C1 danke des erfolgreichen Marketing hat nicht als solches gesehen.

Es scheint auch so das es spezielle mit den Sony uncompressed und Sony Lossless Probleme beim laden gibt - bzw das laden sehr lange dauert. Der Support hat mir geschrieben der iMac ist kein Pro die Grafikkarte ist zu langsam. Ja es ist bekannt das C1 sehr viel Video Speicher benötigt.
