Questions about renting a Mac Studio
What is Mac Studio cloud hosting at Casbay?
You rent a physical Mac Studio that only you use, installed in Casbay's data center in Malaysia. It is real hardware, not a virtual machine, and you manage it remotely with full admin rights.
Which Mac Studio models can I rent?
There are two: Mac Studio M5 Max (18-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 16-core Neural Engine, 36GB unified memory, 512GB storage) and Mac Studio M5 Ultra (30-core CPU, 64-core GPU, 32-core Neural Engine, 96GB unified memory, 1TB storage).
How much does it cost to rent a Mac Studio?
Prices are in USD per month and drop as the term gets longer. Mac Studio M5 Max is $799 on 3 months, $699 on 6 months and $599 on 12 months. Mac Studio M5 Ultra is $1,499 on 3 months, $1,399 on 6 months and $1,299 on 12 months. The price is the same for static and dynamic IP.
What is the difference between a static IP and a residential dynamic IP?
A static IP is a single fixed address that stays with your Mac Studio for the whole rental. A residential dynamic IP comes from home-style address ranges and can change over time.
Which IP type should I choose?
Pick static if other systems need to recognise your Mac by a stable address, for example CI/CD runners, firewall allowlists, DNS or code signing. Pick residential dynamic for geo-testing, rotating exit points or traffic that should resemble an ordinary home connection.
How do I connect to my Mac Studio?
Every plan supports root SSH for the command line, plus DeskIn and Apple Remote Desktop for a full macOS desktop session. Casbay sends your connection details once the machine is ready.
Do I get admin access?
Yes. You get root SSH and full administrator rights, so you can install software and change system settings freely.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery takes 1-14 business days after your order is confirmed. Your access details arrive when the Mac Studio is set up.
