Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch M5, 24GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Space Black (MDE34LL/A) – Extra Memory and Storage for 4K Video, 3D and Larger AI Models
The Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch with M5 (MDE34LL/A) steps up to 24GB of unified memory and a 1TB SSD, which changes what the base M5 chip can handle comfortably. With 50% more memory than the 16GB model, it keeps 4K video timelines, Blender scenes, virtual machines and larger local AI models in memory instead of swapping to storage, so work stays responsive during long sessions. In addition, 1TB leaves room for raw footage, project libraries and datasets on the laptop itself, which matters when you shoot a campaign in Naivasha and edit on the drive home.
At its core, the Apple M5 chip pairs a 10-core CPU (4 super cores and 6 efficiency cores) with a 10-core GPU that includes Neural Accelerators and hardware ray tracing, plus a 16-core Neural Engine and 153GB/s memory bandwidth. Meanwhile, the 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display delivers 1,000 nits for SDR, 1,600 nits peak HDR and ProMotion up to 120Hz for accurate grading. The Space Black aluminium finish uses an anodisation seal that reduces visible fingerprints, and three Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI 2.1, an SDXC slot and MagSafe 3 complete a 1.55kg laptop rated for up to 24 hours of video streaming.
Key Features
In short, this Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch M5 with 24GB and 1TB stands out in five areas:

Who This Laptop Is Best Suited For
As a result of this combination of specs, three types of users benefit most:
- Video editors and YouTubers who cut 4K footage on location and, therefore, need 24GB of memory and 1TB of fast storage.
- 3D artists, architects and motion designers who render in Blender, Lumion or Cinema 4D and benefit from GPU ray tracing.
- Developers and AI engineers who run virtual machines, containers or larger local language models on a portable machine.
