#SPECS FOR RUNNING ADOBE INDESIGN FOR MAC MAC OS#

I like Macs (since 1985 and former Apple certified consultant), but realized a long time ago that computers are just tools and the Mac OS and Windows OS operate basically the same for most users. (My loaded Mac OS and programs take up less than 100 GB.) The job in question will certainly work on a 16 GB system, but I would go with more RAM since a 512 GB drive could be supplemented with external drives. That could be bearable with a larger SSD drive but not optimal. 8 GB will certainly work, but for large jobs, most likely the hard drive will be used for RAM cache. I don't consider those are not "real world" specs-just enough to do basic jobs.

I can't decide whether to pay the extra money for 2 TB, on the assumption that during its lifetime I'm likely to need that much space.Ĭolin Smith did a review of the new MacBook Pro a few days ago, perhaps some of his thoughts will help:Ģ018 i9 MacBook Pro Review for Creative Pros - (with heat fix) - I assume you are referring to Adobe's system requirements. I have 1 TB SSD on my current machine, and it has been useful. I'm also about to go from a mid-2015 MacBook Pro to one of the new ones, I haven't finished thinking it through yet, but I will probably get 1 TB SSD and 32GB RAM. You have to make the decision about how big they are now. If you were also running several other CC apps at the same time I can see how 32GB would be better than 16GB, or that between them all they may benefit from more internal SSD space.īut about the RAM and the SSD on the newer MacBook Pros, they are apparently soldered onto the motherboard. The others here can answer about InDesign specific needs, though at 256GB and 16GB you have 100x the storage requirement and 8x the RAM requirement.

Otherwise, the speed of the drive becomes the bottleneck and the faster connection won't help much. If you want better speed, you can get a USB-C (3.1) or Thunderbolt 3 drive but make sure the drive is a SSD too. You can work with a 512 GB as long as you off-load and archive jobs when they are finished. I have the 1 TB SSD drive on my system-a good investment. Take it out and if the problem does not go away, bring the computer in without the added RAM.) (And easier if you need to bring the computer in for repair-the first thing a tech will blame is third-party RAM.

That makes it easier to install another 16 GB later. However, if you just order it online, Apple will install two 8 GB chips I go to the Apple store and request/require it be a single 16 GB chip. If you want to save money on RAM, get the 16 GB and put in your own RAM. Few people ever complained about having too much RAM.Ħ4-bit software programs don't automatically use all the RAM, they are just capable of accessing the RAM if necessary.
