| Use this guide to replace the SSD, or flash storage module, in your Mac mini (2024). | | This guide was written with a baselinebase model M4 Mac mini. Although the SSD for the M4 Pro versionmodel is longer and in a different position, the disassembly procedure is the same. | | | While the Mac mini's SSD looks like a normal M.2 SSD, [link|https://www.ifixit.com/News/105220/could-you-hack-a-new-mac-mini-ssd|its lacks a storage controller|new_window=true]. Apple integrates the storage controllers into the Apple Silicon SoC, which means that ***normal M.2 SSDs are incompatible***. | | This guide is purely instructional for how to replace the SSD with another of the same type—it doesn't instruct on how to create Apple's proprietary SSDs. |
