    A nice Mac Mini & great value

    The ad headline says it all, really. I needed a second Mac Mini for my office and this late 2012 model was just what the doctor ordered. It came with sufficient RAM and large enough SSD so I did not have to do any additional upgrade work, so it was plug-and-play which was nice. This machine has plenty of performance to handle all of my work needs, including running legacy software on both Windows XP Pro and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit via Parallels. I've had the same machine as my primary office rig since I got it new in 2012 and it continues to get the job done day in and day out without problems. I have a lot of peripherals connected using all of the ports (USB 3, Firewire 800, HDMI, and Thunderbolt) and it all just works.

    2012 Mac Mini is not useful for modern MacOS

    The version that was lists was from 2012. It is just too slow for the modern OS.I did not know it was a 2012 model as the title was misleading. After upgrading the hard drive to SSD and adding more RAM, it got somewhat usable but I still regret the purchase.

  • Still one of the best desktops built by Apple

    I bought this unit to replace an older Mac Mini whose SSD fried. I had six happy years with the previous Mac Mini, that I just had to get this slightly updated unit from 2012, the last model where you could upgrade the RAM memory yourself and quite easily too. For what I do on a daily basis, this model still rocks. I tossed the 4 GB that came with the unit and installed a new 16 GB pair and then updated the OS X to the latest High Sierra, and this hot rod runs smooth as butter. I connected it to a Samsung 4K monitor, and even though the Intel graphics card is not 4K-compatible and certainly slower than any graphics card sold this year, it still does a great job with the basics and colors.

  • Powerful but you may need to upgrade the hardware

    This is a fantastic value for the money. The overall specs are good, with solid hardware, RAM, and a decent processor. The only downside is the possible need to change out hard drives depending on your level of patience. If you are used to the speed of a solid state drive, you will be less than thrilled with the initial speed of this machine. But, leaving aside that minor and easily fixable quibble, this is an excellent machine and if I needed to buy or replace, I would purchase the same model again.

  • Mac mini

    I have its HDMI output displayed on my 55” UHD TV and for $450 I have a very powerful computer. This one is upgraded to 16GB RAM and it has a 256GB SSD so it is extremely fast. I am using it to learn Xcode and so far so good. This came with the Apple wireless keyboard which is excellent and I bought a wireless Logitech M310 mouse for $13 and I already knew it was a great mouse. It’s not the same functionality as the wireless Apple mouse, but I am a PC user mostly, so I don’t know what I am missing!
