For FIX DRM Use SMBIOS: iMacPro1,1

(so you can get fully working Netflix + All iCloud Services)

Notes

1. I chose 15 USB ports in my USB map. 2x USB 3.0(front) + 4x USB 3.0(back) + 2x USB 2.0(back) + Bluetooth(internal via USB 2.0) = 15 ports. Generally there’s no front USB 2.0 port on ITX cases so I didn’t include onboard USB 2.0 ports(HS11/HS12). I believe this is a reasonable trade-off for most people. However if you bought some strange Wi-Fi card which requires USB 2.0 header, you need follow this guide to create your own USB map.
2. For onboard 3.5mm audio output you need to plug into the green(line out) jack. If you restart from Windows, there will be no sound. This is a issue in the Windows Realtek driver as they modified the DSDT. Always shutdown from windows then boot to macOS.
