What you need to know
- OWC sells third-party RAM for Apple computers.
- It sells kits for the new Mac Pro, too.
- The company has confirmed its RAM works with the rack mount version as well.
OWC has confirmed that its Mac Pro RAM upgrade kits will indeed function without issue in the rack mount version of the computer.
Apple only recently started to fulfill orders for the rack mount Mac Pro – which comes at a $500 premium – and now we know for sure that the same RAM works with both versions of the computer.
The rack-mountable version differs in its external construction, something that is necessary to make way for the rails that attach to its sides. However, it seems that internally everything is the same. Just as was always likely to be the case.
If you're looking to pick up some new Mac Pro RAM, OWC is a great place to start your shopping rather than paying Apple's prices. You can save as much as 65% by trading in your old RAM, too. The company has shared a guide on which RAM you should probably pick up based on which model you chose to buy.

- 8-core, 12-core or 16-core Mac Pro with factory 64GB modules: Supplement with additional 64GB OWC modules
