How much memory for the G5 2.7?

I am buying a refurbished G5 2.7 from Apple.
The primary application will be Pro Tools HD2 for audio mixing.
QUESTIONS:
(1) How much memory will I likely need? 2GB? 4GB?
(2) I will buy the memory from Crucial. Should I remove the original memory and use only the Crucial 1GB pairs, so they are matched?
Powermac G5 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

No need to remove the original RAM.
How much to install depends on how you'll be using ProTools. If it's only audio (no sample players), 2GB would probably work perfectly. If you're using samplers heavily, with lots of large samples, you might want to go to 5-6GB.
I'd start with 4GB, RAM for these is cheap (compared to RAM for the Mac Pro.)

  • How much tax for the macbook air in NYC?

    im looking into buying the macbook air 128gb 11.6" and i just want to know more or less how much it will be after tax along with the education discount. can anyone help? =]

    I think it would be about $1,143. Because I believe that the education pricing is $1,050 and then with tax it comes out to $1,143. I'm sorry if I did my math wrong!!

  • I have an iMac OS X Version 10.5.8 but I also have a MacBookPro 10.7.5 version, why software updates are not the same? For example, when I want to know how much memory can not store in the same way in either computer.

    I have an iMac OS X Version 10.5.8 but I also have a MacBookPro 10.7.5 version, why software updates are not the same? For example, the way to see how much memory I have in my iMac is diferent than MacBookPro. And where I can see the memory of the disc I've got in my iMac? Than you very much.

    If you want everything the same on both computers you need to be running the same OS X version. You can't because your iMac is a PPC machine, not Intel.
    But to see information about your hard drive is the same for both. Simply select the drive icon on the Desktop. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Disk information is in the upper panel.

    I have IMac OSX 10.9.4, 4GB,Processor 3.06 with Intell2Duo. I would like to check for Malware. I run a TechTool Pro 6 every month and that comes up great.
    When check how much memory I am using, with only Safari open I am using 3.9 and more of her 4.0 memory. She is very. very slow in processing. I had 4000
    trash to clean out and it took her over an hour to expel. Also for some reason Safari will not allow me to click on a link, in my G-mail, and let it go to the page.
    It has a sign saying a pop-up blocker is on and will not let me do it. I must open the stamp to look at my e-mails and if I have redirected link now I can do it.
    I have not changed my preferences so where is this pop-up blocker?
    I have looked at preferences on Safari and Google, which I do not understand Google, and do not see where this blocker could be.
    Malware is something I want to make sure is not on my computer. Tech Tool Pro 6 is all I know of and it does not detect Malware.
    Help.

  • How can I check how much memory is on my external hard drive after I plug it in. What are the steps I need to go through?

    Im looking for a specific how to on checking how much memory I have left on and external HD. Any help would be wonderful.

    Chris

    If you're on your Mac OS, click on the little Apple sign in the top left corner of the screen and select About This Mac. Then, if you have your external HD plugged in, go to Storage, and there you should see all HDs (internal and external, USBs, etc) space and how much you have left on them. On a Windows OS, just go to My Computer to see.

    Hello comodotomi
    If the app is in iTunes, you can get information on what Apple ID was associated with the purchase. The steps to do this are outline in the article below.

  • How much memory do I need for iPhone?

    Before I purchase an iPhone 4s I would like to know how much memory I might need.  I will have some songs though currently I use only about 2GB on old iPod.  I will no doubt have some pictures and perhaps a video and, of course, some apps though I really don't know how many. I tentatively planned to buy 16GB.  My daughter is shooting for 32GB.  Suggestions and guidelines? Thanks

    Hi, from what you have said above, the 16GB iPhone 4S seemsmore than enough space for a user with the outlined above, bearing in mind youdo not necessarily get 16GB, as there is the operating system and otherprogrammes that use memory, for example I have a 64GB iPhone 4S and it comeswith 57.42 GB or storage.
    If you purchase a 16GB and you do seem to be running out ofspace, you can always back up your data to a computer and it can be deletedfrom your phone - meaning you have more space. If you are worried about havingthis problem 32GB will probably be the best option and will be more thanenough.
    Hope this helps, any further questions feel free to ask, andI will try to answer them.

  • How much memory (in buffers) is needed for a simple webservice's call?

    Dear expert,
    I'm doing a research work about analysing the main memory usage in SAP ERP systems.
    I would like to find out the space that a simple webservice's call occupies in the buffers, but there is always something occupying the buffers. I know that my call to get the values occupies memory, that's why I use a webservice to get them (to avoid the SAPGUI), I call first $SYNC and I use a BAPI similar to the transaction ST02.
    So could someone help me to find out the way to mesure the memory used by a single webservice's call (it's a very simple, just to create a material)? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for that. Will try.

    Subject: How much memory (RAM) is needed for Elements 9 to automatically fill in the edges when using photome
    The key to successful use of edge fill is to ensure that you've got all the memory allocated to PSE that you can and that the file that results after you merge the panoramic is not too big. When PSE 9 first came out about a year ago, I fooled around with file sizes and I think that on my particular computer the merged file had to be no larger than 20 megs for edge fill to work. I did a quick search through this forum's history but I couldn't find my posts. Maybe somebody else can find them.

  • How do I see how much memory is being taken up by programs and how do I delete the ones I don't need.

    Is there a way I can see how much memory each program is taking up and then how do I delete the ones I don't want to use.

    Download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it.  It will show all of your files and the respective sizes.  Delete and transfer what you do not want or need on your HDD.

  • How much memory can I put in my MacBook?

    Hey,
    I have a MacBook.
    Processor 2.13 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 2 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    and I am wondering how much memory I can put in the thing.
    By day my wife uses it for work and pictures and stuff and by night I use it for DJing so I need AS MUCH space as possible.
    Thank you for your time!!

  • How much memory can i put in my imac

    how much memory can i put in my new imac       

    Assuming it's a 27" 2012 machine, it will accomodate up to 32GB. I'd strongly recommend reputable vendors such as OWC (www.macsales.com) or Crucial.
    If you bought a 21.5" iMac the RAM is not upgradeable. The 21.5" machines will accomodate up to 16GB from Apple however you have to order the machine with 16GB directly. OWC does provide RAM upgrade kits for the 2012 210.5" iMacs however it is MAJOR surgergy and is full of risks including fatally damaging the machine and invalidating the warranty.
