Miscellanea

  • Mac mini storage system supports SATA hard drives with 3 GB speed, so while graphics and CPU upgrades are out of question (unless you order them on Apple’s web-site), you can make up by installing a faster hard drive or an SSD. More than that! Removing the SuperDrive, you can get a space for the second hard disk or SSD! Since the SuperDrive also has a SATA interface you can plug in your second HDD with a third-party connector and start Raid-0 on your Mac mini.

You may find Apple’s new $1,499 iMac attractive, if only because it’s one of the most affordable 24-inch all-in-one PCs on the market. Otherwise, Apple’s latest update to the iMac line mostly serves to keep it competitive with its Windows-based competition.
