Excellent Product

i have used OWC products for many upgrades and always been satisfied with their products. This time was no exception as UPS sent my order back for no apparent reason. OWC shipped it right back to me.
Tearing down the mini is not too difficult and OWCs printed instructions along with the online videos are great. This is a tedious upgrade and you should not be in hurry when you start this process. The entire process took me about 90 minutes to complete. You should be confident in working with very small parts and be able to carefully handle delicate components.
Pros: Quality, Durability
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased a 1TB drive to upgrade Mac Mini to 2 TB. The OWC tutorials were GREAT! Unfortunately, I have a Fusion Mini, and an SSD fills the second drive bay. I got the Mini back together, and had to go to Apple store, who tested then reconnected the Bluetooth module and reinstalled the OS. The mini was 1 month old, and they could have charged me for voiding the warranty. Instead they smiled and said "thanks for choosing Apple".
I subsequently bought a 2.5" enclosure (from OWC) and now have a portable 1TB hard drive
This upgrade kit works a charm - I however referred to the ifixit guide when doing the mod and it was a breeze. The parts supplied were overall good quality.
