When you say closed unit, does that mean that one has to take it to the
Apple store for repairs, or is it closed even to them? I would hate to know
I would have to throw the whole thing away just because a memory chip went
bad.

Enewest mac minis, I don't believe so.
They have now made the mac mini a closed unit,
I gave it a good go getting the base off one in a store near my home and
couldn't move it although the store wasn't happy I tried but it was pretty
closed up.
It appears they now want to make it a no go with personal updates of
devices, as in you can't update the mac book pros like you use to be able
to, or the mac mini like you could before,
Imac can still be done '
The 27 inch has a plate at the back that you can open to take out the ram
And if your really keen, you can take the screan off the 21 or 27inch models
to remove or change the harddrive.
I did this myself with a 21 inch 2007 imac and I wont do that again in a
hurry, they are an absolute pig of a system to get into.

Hi. Can you upgrade the RAM on the latest Mac Mini? I would be interested in
doing this but I think Apple prefer we didn’t go to a local retailer for RAM
upgrades.

Also, if you know a good computer store, or you know how to yourself,
you can upgrade the ram, I believe up to 16 GB. At least, mine can be
upgraded that much, yours may be only 8 GB. Still, that is decent.

Hey Arnold,
That is the exact model I got, but it is from 2012.
I honestly think it would be a great buy, as I've read the reviews on it.

It is from 2011. It has an i5, I think 2.5 gig, processor, but only
4 gig of ram. It has a 500 gig hard drive, which is plenty for me.
They want about $430 for this computer. Thanks for any opinions.
