replace internal hard drive with SSD
Can I put a SSD into my Mac mini mid 2011. If so is there a preferred brand or special SSD to buy?

Hi Stewart!
There is no problem putting an SSD in that machine. I usually prefer the Samsung 850 EVO.
Kind regards

Hi Stew!
Overnight it came to my mind: Depending on your OS you should install TrimEnabler or Chameleon
If you are running the latest version of Yosemite, use the command line and type: sudo trim force enable You don't need any 3rd party software anymore.
That should help extended SSD's lifecycle.

Its so sad, isn't it ?! Ever since ⁄ƒ⁄≈⁄† belongs to åππ@€ , censorship is not just a word, its taking place. Thats what I just found out on this last of my comments: I'm reading things, that I never wrote! I wrote Yose‚ª⁄†€! What do U read ?! Yosemite!!!!!! What I was trying to write, without being banned for bad behavior, was ' YOSESHITE '! & Now???!!! : Where is ya' ' Freedom of Speech'? Wozniak be praised:
cmd + shift + 3 ( 4 ) still works ! I've got several proofs!!!!!
Efff off & sick my Duck!!!!! I really wonder............
@Alexander - Keep it clean and please use proper roman characters so people can understand what you are saying.
I installed an SSD from scandisk from conrad Germany.
But what I tryde nothing brings this equipment alive.
Also the company Conrad comes with the righte answer.

Did you install the OS onto the drive before you put it in?
Guide daag , Joost! Well, what did do , to animate this SSD! Usually, they come unformatted or at least ' Master Boot Record ' . Did u go to 'Disk Utility' & gave it the ' GUID & Mac OS x Extented ( journaled ) format ? If Disk Utility does not see it at all ( internally & externally via USB / Fire Wire ) , give it back, its chuffed!!!
