Update keeps Mac Pros running like little Fonzies
Eyyyy! Apple wants to make sure your new Mac Pro keeps running smooth and cool.
The company just kicked out a new firmware update that addresses some fan issues on the Mac Pro.
Apple would only reveal that the update "adjusts fan behavior" though in recent weeks users on the Apple support forums have been complaining about constantly high fan speeds causing noise issues.
Anyone who has had their lap cooked due to the underzealous MacBook Pro fans will have little sympathy.
A few things to note before installing the update.
The update requires a Macintosh formatted drive to install. Apple recommends that users on RAID arrays attach an Apple formatted drive before installing.
The update may take issue to certain third-party USB or Firewire peripherals. If you have issues, disconnect non-Apple devices.
You paid thousands of dollars for this baby, might as well keep it fully updated.
