Otherwise, you might be in for the worst test of patience in your life. Last question, why SSD? Well, if you’re using SSD as your boot drive, I think you should do the same for the VM. In fact, I event invested in a separate 250GB SSD, just for this VM.
For my use case, web and mobile programming, I still find 80GB limiting. If you intend to install lots of tools and libraries, you may need more. As for disk space, that depends on your usage. While 4GB of RAM might work, most Macs start with 8GB of RAM, so I’m trying to replicate the same experience. Next, let me explain the last two requirements. In this example, I’m going to divide my resource into 4 threads for each system, so later, I’m going to make the Mac think it has 4 logical cores. With 8 “logical” cores, I can share 4 cores with my macOS VM. So, in this article, I’m going to share about the VM route. I’ve actually been thinking about going the second route, but unfortunately, the steps are a bit… scary. So, if you’re going this way, please make sure your hardware is compatible. The downsides? Since there aren’t many variations to Mac hardware, compatibility list is rather limited, and installing isn’t exactly straightforward. This means your “mac” will get the best possible performance. And yes, this means that you’ll be running macOS natively in your system.
In case you don’t know, the name comes from “hacking” your own PC to run macOS. If your PC’s resources are limited, the performance might not be good. But, being inside your main OS, the Virtual Machine will need to share resources with your main OS. This method is safer and more compatible, since it’s running as an application inside your main OS. Now, there are two ways to run macOS outside Apple’s ecosystem: Virtual Machine But, for those on budget and really considering to buy a Mac, it doesn’t hurt to have a sneak peek of the operating system, see if you like the look and feel of it.ĭISCLAIMER: Running Apple’s operating systems outside of Apple hardware is violating Apple’s license agreement and terms of use. Well, aside from the discontinued so-called butterfly keyboards and Apple’s zealous tendency to prevent people from upgrading or opening up their devices.īut despite its price, I’d argue that Macs are well worth their cost, especially as a work machine. One thing that I despise Macs the most is, of course, its price p. As an alternative to Windows, I personally like the OS’ keen attention to details, its tight integration with the rest of Apple’s ecosystem, and how its UNIX-based nature makes my job easier.
