Apple posts installation instructions for 2019 Mac Pro upgrades

With the launch of the 2019 Mac Pro, Apple on Tuesday revealed a dedicated support webpage complete with directions as to how to upgrade the RAM, PCIe cards, and other components of the new Mac Pro.

Previously reserved for the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro, Apple’s support page was redesigned today with resources specific to the 2019 version that went up for sale this week.

The primary page of the web site features links for macOS support, backing up a Mac, and migrating data from one Mac to another. A second section covers installation of parts both inside and outside the modular Mac. Support videos include guides for upgrading RAM as well as installing up to two Mac Pro Expansion (MPX) modules, as seen below:

The site also explains how to replace the I/O card and power supply, but warns users to contact a service provider to replace SSD modules and install chassis wheels.

Other guides include tutorials as to how to connect multiple displays, an explanation of the T2 Security chip, information about RAM types, and an overview of supported PCIe cards.

Stay tuned for additional details and if you’ve gotten your paws on the new Mac Pro, please let us know about your experience with the new desktop in the comments.
