Memory for mac mini late 20123/2/2023 I also don’t know what I used without taking it apart, and I can’t do that at the moment. Anyone who bought one back at release time really won the lottery in terms of a long supported and usable platform. As old as they are, I still love my old Mac Minis, even compared to my new M1. HDDs really don’t allow the platform to show itself in a good light at all. Response times and latency reduction makes such a huge contribution to the performance of an SSD - it’s not all about transfer speed. You would get better performance from the internal SATA connector, but anything you can do get the OS running from something other than a HDD is a worthwhile exercise, so an SSD over USB is absolutely an improvement. It usually takes me a few dozen attempts, during which time I question my sanity :) ![]() And I have an uncanny ability to make disaster of re-fitting the WiFi antenna plate. Pulling out the board and then messing around with those tiny connectors is no fun. But it’s definitely a fiddly process, and I can’t say I enjoyed it. ![]() I’ve replaced the drives in my old Mac Minis many, many times.
