Mac mini in like new condition
November 4, 2024
I visited OWC to buy a battery for a MBPro. After finding one I looked around and bought my first Mac mini. It was on sale. I replaced the HDD with an SSD and loaded Catalina first then used Open Core legacy patcher to install Sequoia.
This unit runs great. Thanks much! I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from Apple Mac mini (2014) 2.6GHz Dual Core i5 - Used, Very Good condition.

Under powered and virtually useless
October 28, 2024
The purchase process was perfectly reasonable and the product arises as advertised. Unfortunately, maybe I had not done sufficient research, but the performance of the device was so slow as to render it unusable. I only wanted the unit to stream TV, and I felt sure that it would be good as I have another, older Mac mini that serves this purpose for a different TV. It took this mini over 3 minutes to boot up, and opening Chrome took another minute. Any other action took an equally unacceptable time. We returned the unit, at our expense, so ended up well out of pocket and had to buy a different device from elsewhere. In short, not good
Response from OWC, Support
October 28, 2024
I'm sorry to hear that the Mac mini did not meet your performance expectations. It's understandable to feel frustrated, especially when you were looking forward to using it for streaming TV. The boot-up and loading times you've experienced are certainly not typical for a Mac mini, and I can see why this situation would lead to disappointment.
Your feedback is valuable, and it helps us understand the issues some customers may encounter. If you're open to it, we'd be happy to assist you in finding an alternative product or solution that may better fit your needs. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we're here to help in any way we can.

Regret
October 25, 2024
I very deeply regret buying this Mac mini. It’s exactly as advertised but damn is it bad. I had trouble getting it to run anything. Eventually figured I could at least turn it into a simple Proxmox server and even that is too much to ask of it. I’m sure someone has a use for it out there but I couldn’t imagine what that would be.

Your feedback is important, and we want to ensure you find a solution that works for you.

Quick service and excellent Mac Mini
February 18, 2024
As is typical with OWC/Mac Sales, service was super fast and the product was exactly as advertised. I upgraded the os to MacOS 12 and put it into service as a dedicated video teleconference server, utilizing our TV as monitor and a Logitech web cam for video. I have an Apple TV connected to the same TV, but trying to rig up my iPhone as a video input device is a pain. I spent less than $200 on a good used MinI, webcam and wall mount for the mini. I previously tried ‘fanless’ micro PCs, but they were slow and, unfortunately, PCs running Windows 10. I would recommend this item to a friend!
