M4 Mac Mini: Enhanced Storage, Cooling, and Performance Unveiled
A YouTuber and hardware modder, dosdude1, has successfully upgraded the base M4 Mac mini's storage from 256GB to 1TB by micro-soldering NAND chips, showcasing a cost-effective alternative to Apple's expensive storage upgrades. Despite receiving a faulty batch of 1TB NAND chips, he managed to use two 512GB chips for the upgrade. This mod circumvents Apple's high upgrade fees, which would otherwise cost an additional $400 for a 1TB configuration.
