This is no ordinary Mac® Pro.
Configuring and testing a system can be a daunting task, and media professionals have their own everyday business to attend to. The MPG Photo Workstation is a high performance computer configured for speed, reliability, fault tolerance, and backup, pre-tested and ready-to-use.
For over a year, I pondered a way to deliver ready-to-use and pre-tested systems to my consulting clients that lived up to the high expectations described here at Mac Performance Guide.
The solution? A time-saving and convenient new service provided by Other World Computing. OWC delivers a pre-tested and ready-to-use MPG Photo Workstation to your door according to DIGLLOYD specifications and using the diglloydTools to verify performance and reliability.

Adding quality hardware is not enough. The hardware and software must be configured the optimal way. The MPG Photo Workstation encapsulates that approach: it leverages the hardware expansion capabilities of Apple’s superbly-engineered Mac Pro together with optimal configuration to provide the best possible experience, based on the research presented here at Mac Performance Guide.
Our configurations reflect feedback from hundreds of professional photographers and media professionals, ranging from wedding to sports to stock photography to landscape to service bureaus.
- All configurations are fully assembled, properly configured, rigorously pre-tested, and ready-to-use right out of the box (users will need to install their own specific software applications).
- The MPG Photo Workstation is a more responsive, reliable, productive computer than most users have ever experienced.
- Every day you use your speedy MPG Photo Workstation, you save time—and time is money.
- Automatic protection from drive failures, “oops” errors and software screw-ups is pre-configured and built-in (used as advised, you must confirm and be aware of the setup).
- The MPG Photo Workstation is one computer you can properly back up.
- The computer and memory and hard drives are fully stress-tested and “burned in”, reducing the risk of faulty components by detecting and replacing them before delivery.
The MPG Photo Workstation is especially well suited for photography and similar media, but is valuable in any demanding professional environment.
