Maybe this approach gives us an indication of the way Apple will make the new 2018 Modular Mac Pro with the obvious requirement that it will need to be a lot easier to get into the Mac Pro so that the key components are user accessible. It is also interesting is that Apple hasn't used any direct soldering for the key components in the new iMac Pro, so if you buy an iMac Pro and in the future and you are happy to void the warranty, it may be possible to give it some extra power in the future using off the shelf parts. Although it comes out like any other desktop CPU, it is mounted differently, so it may be possible to replace the CPU the future but this has yet to be confirmed. The Intel Xeon processor inside of the iMac Pro may also be replaceable. The base model comes with 32GB of DDR4 in a 4 x 8GB configuration, which would mean that a 64GB iMac Pro would come with 4 x 16GB and a 128GB model would come with 4 x 32GB modules. The iMac Pro models would appear to come with four DIMM slots for RAM.

The base model’s 1TB SSD is actually two 512GB M.2 drives in a RAID configuration, which once inside the iMac Pro are removable via a single screw, meaning users could make replacements, or upgrades on your own if you are prepared to void the Apple warranty on a $5K purchase. In this video, there are some interesting revelations, even though getting inside of the iMac Pro looks as if it isn't for the faint-hearted, as you have to go a long way in before you get to the key components including pulling off the display, unscrewing the speakers, removing the cooling fan unit and pulling the motherboard out. Watch as Mike and Matt from OWC teardown one of the fastest Macs ever made and reveal a look into what makes it work and the upgrade possibilities. Our friends at OWC have chosen to celebrate the launch of the iMac Pro with a teardown video.
