\"pumped-mini\"Now that we’ve got upgrade installation videos for the Late ’09 MacBook<\/a> and iMacs<\/a>, we are turning our attention to the other upgraded model – the Mac mini<\/strong>. While we’re hard at work on the upgrade videos for the new Server model, those of you with the standard mini aren’t being left out in the cold. In fact, the videos for your mini are ready to go!<\/p>\n

As it turns out, the internals of the Late ’09 mini are identical to those of the Early ’09 model<\/strong>. That means the take-apart is exactly the same, too. So whether you want to put in a larger hard drive<\/a> or bump up the RAM<\/a>, the free video instructions can be found both in our Tech Center<\/a> and on our YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Of course, if you decide after watching the process, you’d rather have this upgrade professionally done, we can help you out there, too. Our Installation Service<\/a> offers swift turnaround and professional results, all at a reasonable price.<\/p>\n

Even though your Mac mini isn’t one of Apple’s “flagship” products, it doesn’t mean it can’t be a heck of a workhorse. Maximize your mini’s performance with upgrades and a little help from OWC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
