[@NFMorley]

The M1 machines are impressive, and I've been really happy with my M1 Air (albeit I still have a powerful desktop pc); the graphical power of their chips in particular for video/photo work is remarkable for such low energy chips vs the power hog my desktop RTX card is! Linux could be an interesting experience once the quirks are ironed out. That being said, I am getting pretty fed up with Apple's 'greenwashing' of their products and stupid design quirks though. It's disappointing they claim to be environmentally conscious in their supply chain, and with gestures like using paper packing, then go out of their way to design their machines to be difficult to repair/maintain, and I strongly suspect that 'expandable' storage in the Mac Studio isn't just a standard NVMe/m2 implementation, but linked to a proprietary chip model or standard. It just irritates me because despite all R&D costs they no doubt plough into these, there's still clear decisions made to compromise the product for profitability rather than just make it as good as possible. Sorry for the rant!

[@JoshBeatty6]

@Jake Siener That plug is a standard C5 power cord, that you can buy on amazon for 6$, not proprietary at all. I’m all for bashing apple but don’t make things up.

[@ianide2480]

This is why I vote with my wallet. Never mind that I refuse to pay the apple tax. Apple's "engineering practices" and recent anti-repair efforts are enough to keep me away from any of their products. And no, I am not sold by their recent PR stunt to make people think that they are pro-repair. I cannot fathom how they can claim to be some jesus meets gandhi, leading the way in "green," we love recycling type of company. Just admit that your sole purpose is to obsolete last years product as quickly as possible and sell a new one this year, this is not a secret.

[@tjarkwestensee7152]

The SSD if I remember correctly is actually just the NAND-Chip and the actuall controller is integrated into the M1 SoC

[@S41t4r4]

even worse, they market their paper packaging as environmentally friendly while it's 100% made out of new paper, the stuff that is actually still pretty harmful, because it's probably contains a lot of tropical wood because the wood marked is extremely intransparent and even without it still contribute to a lot of environmental damage.

[@Initialgs]

The thing is, in the main, apple machines, whilst they can and do go wrong, in my own personal experience of using them for over thirty six/seven years I can literally count on one hand how many times they’ve needed repairing. I just use my Mac (for work) and keep it for years, then at some point 6 or 8 years down the road I exchange it for a higher spec model. My PC gaming buddies however are always tinkering and upgrading, cards, motherboards, cases etc etc. on balance I am not sure how much greener one is over another. But I’d say at least in my case and the companies I’ve worked with over the years, on balance using the Mac workflow has at least to me seemed a little more friendly environmentally speaking. Though it’s probably pretty close really. As far as repair goes again in general, and again in my own experience which admittedly is not all that expansive, it would seem to me that the average Mac user is really not about repairing, tuning, tweaking and upgrading. Part of the whole fun of PC ownership is tinkering and absolutely my PC buddies know waaaaay more than I do about computers. I know my way around a Mac and it’s systems and I can chuck in some memory (well, when we could do that, I admit that is frustrating that you cannot do that so much with the newer machines so you have to pay Apple prices which are often 4-5x the cost of equivalent third part), though again with the average Apple user you tend to just not over think such things and order from the apple store what you need. I understand that you should really have a choice as an end user and Apple are short sighted in taking that option off the table. I just think that they know their market and are trying to deliver quick, efficient machines that work out the box with little effort. If you are a PC head then you are probably not going to buy into that, and that is absolutely fine. I’ll stick with my Mac just because it’s just a tool to use and I just use it with little fuss, when I turn it off or on standby at the end of a days work, I forget about it. If I want to game I chuck my Xbox on and use that. I do miss the old days of turning up to lan Quake 3 competitions when everyone brought out their beige monster pc rigs and I just ran my original (titanium) MacBook Pro….

[@affieuk]

Hugo runs twice as fast on Asahi Linux vs MacOS, google it, reddit thread.

[@JohnADoe-pg1qk]

The SSD is in one slot (and there seems to be a second slot as well), but it's a proprietary system. The swappable part is just the memory - and that's dongled to the device. If you put it in another Mac Studio, it won't work. (I read that elsewhere, there are videos on KZbin, too.)

[@JeffGeerling]

If the firmware can be updated the actual SSD memory could be upgraded, most likely (just like on the existing Mac Pro). I'm hopeful Apple will offer upgrades-the decision to keep the memory in an expansion slot required time and money to do... they'd have to be able to change it out somehow.

[@Cynyr]

I'd bet the ports were basically a response to supply chain issues more than Apple wanting to offer upgrades. Socketed ram and SSDs mean you can keep churning out main boards and lower spec versions even if there is another dram shortage. Also if they are planning on keeping this design around for a few years, this allows an easy mid generation refresh to higher ram and SSD capacities without re-tooling.

[@Steamrick]

Regarding idle power - it's actually not the CPU consuming that power, it's everything else. Mainly the mainboard (chipset, etc), RAM (a couple watts) and HDDs if you have them. The CPU will go waaay down in power consumption when truly idling. Power under load - just imagine if you'd measured against an Intel i9. (If you consider that an whataboutism... fair enough.)

[@JeffGeerling]

True, when the PC is 'off', the thing is still pulling 1-2W (the Studio shows as 0.0W on the Kill-A-Watt). But the AMD CPUs are also not as good at idle power consumption as the latest Intel chips (especially lower end).

I feel like the M1 generation of Mac machines would work as amazing servers, they consume very little power, even under load and they have a pretty damn reasonable amount of horsepower compared to Raspberry Pi's and other consumer ARM systems. Only unfortunate thing being that there's very little room for upgrades or expansions.

[@foldionepapyrus3441]

Indeed, I find it very hard to say it as Apple's walled garden business models really make me want to hate everything they do, but these M1 chips do seem to really hit a great sweet spot of performance and efficiency - far better for a large variety of users that don't really need the super computer number cruncher than the AMD/Intel competition, and for once don't seem quite so stupendously overpriced for the hardware insides capabilities. But really they need to put out a workstation/server version so you can choose to expand the IO/Storage etc to actually have the damn thing meet your needs.

I am actually surprized at the performance smilarities between the 5600X and the M1 Max, i was expecting it to be more like a 5900X I cant wait to see the efficiency PCs will be able to bring us when they get on the same node that Apple is currently using. The "65w" versions of the X processors arent all that much slower than the "100w" X processors, but they do use less power for similar performance. The 50% performance per watt increase from going to TSMC 7nm to TSMC 5nm would be interesting, and hey, we'll finally be able to compare ARM and X86/AMD64 Apples to Apples(pun intended). I was actually pretty dissapointed with my personal M1 Mac Mini when compared to my work's Lenovo L15 with 4750u. Well, at least when i put it to work at the main use case i bought it for(transcoding MPEG2 videos to H265 using the CPU only(GPU transcodes make the files larger, or lower quality, or both). In the tests i measured both machines from the wall, transcoding the same episode of my mom's favorite show(days of our lives) They were both about the same performance, with the Lenovo taking 1 hour 4 minutes, and the Mac Mini taking 1 hour 9 minutes, which i've seem more variation run to run on the same machine, so they're identical in my book. What dissapointed me was the power numbers. Now, remember, the Apple M1 is using a highly efficient design with all the parts really close together to reduce the energy neede to move data around. The architecture is supposedly more efficient than X86. and its on a "50% more efficient" node. AND it was just a desktop, there was no screen or keyboard and trackpad to power, even the fans were barely audible because the cooling solution can easily handle 45w, compared to the laptop that sounded like a jet engine. Despite all the advantrages, the freaking laptop was more efficient. I couldnt believe it so i re-ran the tests again the next day after asking to take the laptop home(instead of just one test over my lunch) But no, the same power meter measuring both devices showed that the Mac Mini on average used ~33Wh from the wall for each transcode, while the laptop only used ~28Wh. I need to try it again soon, maybe with TDARR to get a larger automated sample size. And before you ask, yes, this was after FFMPEG and Handbrake released M1 native versions. What i've found is that my 3950x is best for transcoding, because i can clock it to 2.8Ghz while i'm not using it, and with 3 transcodes running at the same time, the whole system uses only about 70w more than idle, but is equivelant to about 5-6x faster than the Mac Mini (where 5 Mac Minis would use almost double the power)

I've decided over the years that editing everything on one local volume is worth the one-time price Apple charges. I have everything local backed up to a NAS over a 2.5G network. Someday if I can upgrade everything to 10G, and I can get a NAS that can transfer at 500 MB/sec all day (the current NASes I'm using don't have the horsepower), I could edit over the network more easily.
