Hi everyone,
would it be possible to replace the hard disk that comes with the mac mini (1.42Ghz, 512Mb ram, 80Gb HD, combodrive) with a new one that is 7.200rpm ? If so, would this cause heat/noise issues ? thanks zakary |

get one of these, start at the back of the mini, either side , and work your way all the way around. when you put it back together, start at the rear to engage the row of metal shield clips. you will need to use more force than you expect. polypropylene is difficult to break http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/inde...o/mini/med.html look here for more info, just work your way around instead of the sides first , the unit they are working on has likely been opened before and is easier to open than yours might be. You can avoid the difficulty on the second side. NOTE , very important!!!!!! if you break ANYTHING while doing this. YOU HAVE VOIDED YOUR WARRANTY. This upgrade , on it's own, does not void the warranty. But the warranty does not extend to your new HD nor will it cover any damage caused by it's use or installation..
