angelonyc Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'm still struggling with my 2015 mac pro. I need something more powerful, but the new Mac Pro entry level, doesn't cut it for me. I just got started adding on, and I had reached $10K.. I'd probably get OWC's 6bay Thunderbolt 3. I have two of their Thunderbays, on Thunderbolt 2. RAID 5 give you plenty of speed, and protection if one disk dies. Hackintosh's look good, but I'm not into trying to deal with modifying code. Just starting to read about VEP.. I could purchase that, and get a lot of use. Anyone with experience with either, please share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rAC Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 If you are happy to ‘lockdown’ your OS and other software at particular versions a hackintosh is probably a very good way to go atm given you don’t want to be trying to modify code on a regular basis. There are a number of good sites that make the initial built very easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sascha Franck Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 In case you want to go for a Hackintosh and don't want to deal too much with whatever "code modifications", have a look for "golden builds". These are tried and trusted and usually come with a very detailed parts list and instructions on how to assemble things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelonyc Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 Thanx guys.. I'm really not in a rush to move. so I'll keep researching.. Hopefully I can find PC wiz, who lives nearby, can help me when necessary.. The new Mac Pro is probably gonna be just too expensive for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redgreenblue Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I use VEP, it works well. I've used it for years before I got a new machine and even with a new machine I find it handy for some of my heavy plugins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
