iFixIt Kit Lets You Add a Second Hard Drive to Your New Mac Mini

Posted August 16, 2011 at 4:51pm by
iFixIt has announced a kit that lets you add a second hard drive to your new Mac mini.

We found in our teardown that the new Mac Mini had a lovely empty spot for a secondary drive. Needless to say, in the days following the teardown we received hundreds of requests for some way to add a secondary drive to the new Mini without having to buy the $400-extra Server model.


It took a while to sort out the gremlins and align the stars, but it's finally here! Our new Mac Mini Dual Hard Drive Kit is the perfect solution to add a second hard drive to your Mini.


This kit includes:
● Proprietary SATA hard drive cable
● Shock-absorbing mounting grommets
● Mounting screws
● Mac Mini Logic Board Removal Tool
● 26-Piece Bit Driver Kit
● Spudger

The kit is already out of stock but can be purchased for $69.95.
