Overview

The Rack-Mountable Mac Pro (2019) models share identical internal components to their tower counterparts, but feature a different chassis design (engineered to fit into a 5U rack), have different identifiers, and initially retailed at a premium price.


This particular configuration, the Mac Pro "Eight Core" 3.5 (2019 - Rack Mountable) -- features a single 3.5 GHz Eight Core Xeon W (3223) processor with Turbo Boost reaching 4.0 GHz and 24.5MB of cache and originally was equipped with 32GB of RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and AMD Radeon Pro 580X graphics with 8GB of GDDR5 memory (as of March 8, 2022, Apple updated the standard configuration to a 512 GB SSD and an AMD Radeon Pro W5500X with 8GB of GDDR6 memory).


In its default configuration, connectivity options include two USB 3 ports (via a pre-installed Apple I/O card), four Thunderbolt 3 ports (two on the Apple I/O card and two at the front of the chassis), two HDMI 2.0 ports (on the video card), two 10Gb Ethernet ports and a 3.5 mm headphone jack with headset support along with 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0. Additionally, additional connectivity can be expanded using PCIe expansion cards.

Evaluation

As the entry-level processor configuration for the 2019 Mac Pro housed in a specialized rack-mount chassis, this model occupied a unique position. The 8-core 3.5 GHz Xeon W provided more than enough powerful performance for many professional workflows that didn't require a massive core count, especially in fields like audio production. It offered the full modularity and connectivity of the Mac Pro platform in a 5U enclosure, making it a solid choice for audio production studios or server rooms where rack space was the standard. Despite being the base configuration, it possessed ample capability to meet the demands of professional environments.
