good enough as only computer
November 22, 2022
Mac mini arrived quickly and in excellent condition. Setup was easy. So far it makes a great music player hard wired to my sound system and also a target for Time Machine backups from my laptop. Never had a Mac mini before but very impressed with it. Would be very happy with its speed and capability even if it were my only computer. I would recommend this item to a friend!

Thank goodness an updated Mac for a good price
November 3, 2022
I've spent twice as much on computers as on cars - or more. I hated leaving the colorful Snow Leopard, now High Sierra is not working with apps I need. So I held my nose and - yay, a mini with enough oomph to do what I need. I would recommend this item to a friend!

Exactly as Described and Perfect for My Music Server Use Case
October 4, 2022
The pre-owned late 2014 Mac Mini I purchased from OWC is exactly as described. Excellent condition - almost looks new. Includes the ordered 16 GB memory and the OWC SS 250 GB drive. Came preinstalled with Catalina but I easy upgraded to Monterey. This mini is quickly becoming an antique with the announcement that the M2 Mac mini release is around the corner. Also, announced that the late 2014 mini won’t run upcoming Ventura OS.
All said, the reason I purchased this is to work as a stand-alone music server. It should work great as that and be very cost effective since I purchased it pre-owned. Mine includes the 3.0GHz processor so plenty of power run Apple Music and even play high-resolution files.
The advantage of the older unit, other than a great price, is that it comes with more input ports (i.e., USB-A) that are compatible, without adaptors, with all my existing audio great. It also was the last unit that includes an audio line in minijack in case I decide to record/preserve some of my vinyl.
As always, OWC did right by me with this late 2014 Mac mini. I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from Apple Mac mini (2014) 3GHz Dual Core i7 - Used, Excellent condition.

We sell many different Mac's and we provide them to help with the many different needs. No matter where the Mac may have previously come from, each is thoroughly inspected to check and see if it’s good working condition to make sure it is ready to go for the next owner. Apple will always be pushing and releasing more Macs and more updates to its Operating system, and while we can't help with that…we do hope we can at least help provide new homes to the older ones. Frankly we also agree, the nice thing about the older models is that they do have more ports, and it generally makes connecting a lot easier. Thanks for sharing and hope you continue to enjoy!

If you are looking for easy, simplistic, as well as quality…you can't go wrong with a Mac, as it is typically is much better when it comes to giving you the best. Then when it comes to saving, that is a great time to buy a used Mac and save a little bit of money as that is where you can make sure that a great machine can still be put to use. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the review.

OWC provided me with a straightforward online purchase that allowed me to customize the configuration of the Apple Mac Mini unit that I needed for some light photo editing.

Fantastic price for my Apple Legacy Server clone!
August 23, 2022
Although the device shipped with Catalina, I was able to refresh it via Internet Recovery and get it back to Sierra for a fully functional clone of my legacy Mac Server. With Apple still supporting Server 5.2 resources. It's hard to let go of such an efficient solution in a myriad of convoluted alternatives. Thanks Mac Sales! I would recommend this item to a friend!

Second Mac purchase through macsales.com
August 22, 2022
Product arrive on time as ordered. This is my second mac purchase through macsales.com. There is nothing wrong with my previous purchase, But it’s now a legacy mac and can’t be update. The recent problem with Macs. You pay for quality hardware that lasts and then they won’t update the software to force you to buy a new computer despite nothing being wrong with the hardware except that you can’t update the processor.

We understand what you mean, and couldn't agree more. We believe that if there is nothing wrong with your Mac, that you should be able to keep using it, however more and more the software is the first thing to lose support meaning that it can't be updated. That is why we offer a variety of used Mac's, that way if you need to upgrade to a new machine so you can take advantage of the latest and greatest features, you can do so without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing the feedback, the 5 star review, and for trusting and choosing us to make your purchase.

Nice unit, but the optical output did not work.
June 15, 2022
I bought this Mini to use as a music server. So I was very disappointed to find that the optical output was not working. It seems to be a dirt problem, since by applying suction to the area of the computer I was able to get the optical output working again. Using a compressed air can did nothing. It must have been very dirty inside that computer. I am concerned of course that the optical output will stop working again. It would be better if OWC had tested ALL the functions of the computer before selling it. I would recommend this item to a friend!
