The new Mac Pro is a joke. If you need to add more disks, you're adding an additional $1,500 to $2,500 for the external disk enclosure. That puts the base price, for 6 bays at $5,500! Now that is absurd.
- slantyyz 13y agoAnd what's the benefit of a tiny chassis when you're still giving up more desk space for external hardware and a mess of cables? The Pro's impressive innovations in size and design, in my mind, were done for the sake of bragging rights than for practicality.
- Karunamon 13y agoI can add external peripherals to any laptop/desktop and drive the price up as well. I'm talking out of the box.
- e40 13y agoYou are being disingenuous. The number of laptop users with a bunch of external disks compared to desktop users.... very, very different. This is about what is normal. My desktop machines have ALWAYS had more than just the boot drive. My laptops have NEVER had anything but the boot drive.
