Apple is Toying with Mac Pro: A 5 Inch Cute Rackable Prototype Mac Pro?

Apple is toying with its Mac Pro Product Line, and a prototype next generation Mac Pro is being developed in Cupertino Labs. in California (USA). A recent has just revealed that Apple is planning to redesign 8.1 inch Mac Pro (Apple’s high end desktop; it was formerly known as the Power Mac) into a cute 5 inch device. Apple would also cut down the height of Mac Pro to make it rackable in server cabinets as a 3U component.

The said report also claims that Apple has developed a “stacked” drive configuration making use of sleds competent in handling two conventional or solid state hard drives apiece. It would considerably increase the density of drives and would help in Apple efforts   to squeeze all of the existing components into the slighter form factor for new Mac Pro 2011.

Looking at the Pro Mac design evolution, it is interesting to note that the Mac Pro’s current design first hit the market in the form of the Power Mac G5 in mid-2003. Nearly eight years after the Mac Pro’s current design debuted, Apple is toying with a re-designed version of the product. The new design is said to be narrower at just over 5-inches and a few inches shorter at around 19-inches.  One of the reasons that Apple might be making this particular Mac Pro prototype smaller is because it is able to fit on to a standard server rack.

Apple has lastly refreshed its Mac Pro in late July with up to 12 cores ssd options. It means Apple  yet realizes the popularity of Mac Pro and is going to introduce a new updated next generation Mac Pro with some new features and redesigned hardware.
