- iMac 24-inch, M1, 2021, 256GB 16GB memory. MBA M1 2020 256GB, 8GB memory.
In activity Monitor on my iMac the following is displayed. Physical Memory: 8.00GB, Memory Used: 4.16GB, Cached Files: 3.80GB. Or another time it might be Memory Used: 5.25GB, Cached Files: 2.73GB. I noticed that the two figures added together don't appear to exceed the 8.00GB total memory capacity. So does that mean that the two figures added together are using up virtually all of my 8.00GB memory capacity? If the answer is yes, do I need more memory?
