Rating: 5/5 Excellent used product September 13, 2020 I'm so happy with my Mac mini, and glad I chose OWC to purchase from. The item arrived in good shape (just a few small scratches on the body), and works well. I needed it for my new work-from-home setup, and it's been a lifesaver. No issues at all.

Rating: 5/5 Terrific upgrade and a great price July 18, 2020 Had to replace a Mac Pro Tower (2008) after a glitch (gets halfway through the startup process, then shuts down). Saw this on clearance and jumped on it (can't beat 16GB RAM and 1 TB SSD). Though I miss the internal storage and expandability, the speed and upgraded processor makes up for it. Pic also shows NewerTech miniStack MAX, also purchased from OWC
