add more RAM ?
2 old mac pros,
mid 2010
2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
one with 16 gb ram, = 4 x 4gb sticks
other with 24 gb ram = 3 x 8 gb sticks [they are a heavy photoshop user
both mac pros have 2 mechanical HDs in them -
boot drive is fast 1 tb, 'clone' drive is also 1tb but slower and is only there for clone and emergency purposes
recently upgraded to 10.11.6
and
adobe cc 2017, idd, illus, photoshop
customer kept adobe cc 2015 add, illlus, photoshop on both mac pros
talked to customer and they said they keep all 3 apps open at a time but do not mix 2015 and 2017
to give them better performance at a good price, i was going to upgrade
24 gb mac pro to 3 x 16gb = 48gb ram
and then take that ram and put it into other mac pro
3 x 8g = 24 + 1 x 4 gb = 28 gb
apple had suggested that 3 sticks of ram is better than 4 sticks of ram
any suggestions would be helpful
ps - i have talked to client about SSD drive but 1 tb SSD is expensive and then there is cost of sled
what is nice about ram solution above i that only ram is re-used to keep cost of solution low
thanx !
