If you want speed, you know how to get it.ДЎ0) Overall itвЂ™s a nice upgrade. I guess weвЂ™re living in an SSD world now. The 2011 Mac mini had the faster 7200RPM and that was a nice bonus.

It's still incredible having a Mac under $500.Д©) When ordering an HDD option, it looks like it is still a 5400RPM drive.

It started there, then the base price went to $599, $699, back to $599 and now a full circle back to $499. (When we have used Mac minis, we list them here.)ДЁ) ItвЂ™s nice to see the return of the $499 Mac mini.

That machine offers the SSD/RAM upgrade options, the quad-core processor, and can also run a number of past versions of OS X. This makes for a quick recovery if needed.)Д§) The 2012 Mac mini will still be very popular, keeping the prices of used Mac minis high. (ItвЂ™s much easier to plug that external drive into another Mac and boot from it. Very useful, but having a backup on the outside of the Mac mini can be useful too.

Now that there are two, you can have a second Gigabit port and a Thunderbolt drive.Д¦) There is no more вЂњServerвЂќ version, so no more dual-drive Mac mini.

IвЂ™ll be interested to see if theyвЂ™re still needed for the 2014 Mac mini.)ДЈ) It's really looking like the RAM can no longer be upgraded by the user. (Speaking of screen sharing, these HDMI adapters have been very useful. In a data center, that will be useful for those who process a lot of images and will likely help when screen sharing. And with the addition of USB 3 in the 2012 mini, that covers a lot of what people need for speed.Дў) For home users, the increased Graphics will be a very welcomed upgrade. The Thunderbolt drives are getting less expensive and have more options available. A few years ago, this would have been a big loss, but I donвЂ™t think itвЂ™s as big of a deal now.
