All three plans provide a dedicated physical Apple Silicon Mac mini, not a virtual machine. Rent by the day, week, month, or quarter, starting at $21.3/day.
The entire device’s compute, memory, and local storage are reserved for one tenant. Assess your build size first, then choose a region and rental term to avoid overcommitting for short tasks or hitting memory limits in high-concurrency pipelines.
Each card lists the chip, memory, local storage, and prices for all four rental terms. Use daily or weekly terms for short trials, and monthly or quarterly terms for stable development environments and always-on runners. Actual availability is returned in real time by the console.
$106.5/month
$199.3/month
$306.2/month
Use one table to compare all three plans without switching between cards.
| Plan | Chip | Memory | Storage | Daily | Weekly | Monthly | Quarterly |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MacRents M4 Core | M4 | 16GB | 256GB | $21.3 | $57.5 | $106.5 | $289.7 |
| MacRents M4 Plus | M4 | 24GB | 512GB | $39.9 | $107.6 | $199.3 | $542.1 |
| MacRents M4 Pro | M4 Pro | 64GB | 2TB | $61.2 | $165.3 | $306.2 | $832.9 |
The goal is not the highest specification, but understanding memory usage, cache size, concurrent builds, and model-file size. Use these guidelines to narrow your options; for long-running pipelines, run a complete build against the real repository.
Best for single-repository debugging, script validation, reproducing development environments, short Xcode builds, and low-concurrency automation. With 16GB memory and 256GB storage, it suits workflows with controlled dependency sizes and regularly cleaned caches.
Ideal for a persistent remote macOS development environment, always-on CI agents, and projects that retain more dependency caches. Its 24GB memory and 512GB storage provide more headroom for everyday development and parallel CI.
Best for local large-model inference testing, high-concurrency builds, larger test matrices, and engineering workloads with substantial local data. Its 64GB unified memory and 2TB storage reduce disruption from frequent cache cleanup and model-file migration.
Run real workloads first—not just a size check on the project. Record peak memory, cache growth, concurrent queues, and artifact size during one complete build. If tasks are frequently interrupted by cache cleanup, add storage first; if builds, simulators, or inference compete for memory, move up to a higher-tier plan.
All three plans are available in Singapore, Japan (Tokyo), South Korea (Seoul), and Hong Kong. Prioritize the locations of your developers, repositories, and artifact destinations rather than choosing by city name alone.
All listed combinations are generally available to rent.
| Plan | Singapore | Japan (Tokyo) | South Korea (Seoul) | Hong Kong |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MacRents M4 Core | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability |
| MacRents M4 Plus | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability |
| MacRents M4 Pro | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability |
Availability is returned in real time by the console. All four regions operate normally 365 days a year.
Ideal for teams whose members and code services are primarily in Southeast Asia. Measure both developer-to-region and region-to-repository performance before choosing a long-term location.
Ideal for local Japanese development, automated testing, and artifact delivery. If your package sources and repositories are in Japan, this can reduce cross-border network uncertainty.
Ideal for projects centered around Korean developers, test devices, and internal services. CI tasks should check both dependency downloads and artifact upload paths.
Ideal for cross-border collaboration and access from multiple Asian regions. Do more than one latency test—also monitor packet loss and routing changes during working hours.
Add SSD capacity to a base plan when you need to retain more dependency caches, artifacts, model files, or test data. Add-ons are billed for the selected rental term and listed separately before checkout.
For development projects that need more space for DerivedData, dependency caches, test artifacts, and short-term archives. Check local data growth before adding capacity, and archive historical artifacts externally when possible.
For model files, larger test datasets, multiple toolchain versions, or projects that retain several caches at once. Use the local disk as a workspace, not your only backup location.
Measure space used when dependency caches, DerivedData, simulator data, and temporary artifacts coexist.
Track how much archives, test reports, and logs grow after each pipeline run to set a cleanup cadence.
Identify what can be rebuilt and what must be transferred back, then verify and migrate it before the rental term ends.
When your workflow requires multiple Mac minis to run parallel tasks together, add Thunderbolt 5 linking. It works well for splitting build queues, test tasks, and data-processing steps, but does not replace task scheduling, cache consistency, or retry strategies.
Fees are calculated per participating device. Before checkout, confirm the device count, each region’s role, and task allocation, then verify the linked-device quantity on the bill.
Suitable for build, test, packaging, and data-processing workflows that can be split into independent tasks. Clearer task boundaries make multi-Mac troubleshooting easier.
Define the primary node, worker nodes, cache location, artifact return path, and retry strategy so the queue does not become more complex as devices are added.
Confirm the number of participating devices and the rental term. Linking is billed per device as a separate line item.
This example uses a MacRents M4 Plus, Hong Kong region, monthly billing, +1TB SSD, and Thunderbolt 5 linking for one device. The region identifies the delivery location and does not add a separate charge.
$199.3 + $13.7 + $5.4
The bill uses the daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly rate. This example uses monthly billing for the MacRents M4 Plus, so the base plan is $199.3.
The bill records the selected region—Singapore, Japan (Tokyo), South Korea (Seoul), or Hong Kong—for easier order and connection verification.
SSD upgrades and Thunderbolt 5 linking are not included in the base plan price. Each add-on is calculated separately for the same rental term.
The final amount is the base plan plus all add-ons. Recheck the plan, region, term, capacity, and linked-device count before submitting the order.
All orders are billed in USD. We accept only USDT-TRC20 and Visa / Mastercard / Amex (via Stripe). The available payment gateway is determined by the console.
Before paying, verify the plan, rental term, region, SSD upgrade, and Thunderbolt 5 device count on the order. After payment, view the order and host status in the console. For billing issues, submit a ticket through the console or email support@macrents.com.

All three plans are dedicated physical machines, not virtual machines. Before submission, the console lists the base plan, added capacity, linking fees, and USD total.
