Title: Apple cuts prices on storage upgrades for older Macs Post by: HCK on November 04, 2016, 04:05:15 pm Apple cuts prices on storage upgrades for older Macs
<article> <section class="page"> <p>While we were busy gasping at the prices of the newest MacBook Pros (http://www.macworld.com/article/3136222/macs/meet-apple-s-complete-macbook-lineup.html), Apple was slashing prices on other Mac upgrades—specifically the 512GB and 1TB SSD build-to-order options for the MacBook Air, last year’s MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Pro, and Mac mini. Adding more storage to a base model Mac is now $100-$200 cheaper, so a 512GB upgrade is in the $200-$300 range and 1TB is $600-$700.</p><p>MacRumors (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/11/01/apple-drops-prices-on-ssd-upgrades-for-older-macs/) first noticed the price drops, which make buying an older Mac a slightly more compelling option.

Upgrade the 2015 15-inch Pro to 512GB for $200, down from $300, or to 1TB for $600, down from $800. The 13-inch Pro can be upgraded for $200 (for 256GB), $400 (for 512GB), or $800 (for 1TB).</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3137975/macs/apple-cuts-prices-on-storage-upgrades-for-older-macs.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Apple cuts prices on storage upgrades for older Macs (http://www.macworld.com/article/3137975/macs/apple-cuts-prices-on-storage-upgrades-for-older-macs.html#tk.rss_all) |
