Maybe for a little server or something, but with the hard to upgrade 256GB storage.. I don't get the appeal. Also 16GB of memory is extremely limited these days. Again, perfect for a little server, but not for a daily driver.


For someone who wants to develop and build apple ecosystem apps or cross-platform an existing game this is a steal.


It's a desktop computer. What's keeping you from using an external SSD?


For large media, sure, but I really don't to pay a premium to then need to manage where my everyday apps are installed cause I only have 256GB of storage I can't upgrade.


The storage is easily upgradable on the new Mac mini as it’s using a standard M2 SSD (a short version)

The video is desoldering chips, getting new compatible ones and soldering them back (exactly like Mac Studio).

I wouldnt call that easy. Most people would call that the exact opposite.


Except you have to use proprietary SSDs otherwise soldering is involved. 1/10
