The third-party SSD board for Mac Mini seems to be finished

by Poster Jan 2, 2025 12
I watched the video today and saw that the first batch of cars has been shipped, and the price is about 799 2TB (it is said that the SanDisk thick plate is cheaper, but the overall price of the later cars will be a little more expensive). Looking at the video, there is no problem with installing and entering the system. I'm not sure whether there will be other problems (after all, it's something that has just been released), but I feel that it's a good thing for the beggar version of Mac mini.

    It is said that the price has increased to 1100 +... Keep paying attention, when it is stable and reliable, replace the 2T urine bag

    The official board is a 10-layer board, and the two new third-party companies are both 4-layer boards. It is hard to say whether it is stable or not. It is worth 799 at most, and the price increase is outrageous. Let's wait a few months and see

    If the merchants have too much desire for profit, it is really not worth it to raise prices

    Don't underestimate Apple's hardware design capabilities. Apple uses 10-layer boards because of high-frequency signals. The stability of Huaqiangbei is definitely not good now, and the data is priceless.

    At least you need 8-layer boards before you start, the information is priceless

    The first and second batches seem to be 799 2T (SanDisk thick chips), but they are 4-layer PCBs. I will continue to use the external hard disk box for a while to see the response. Now it seems that there are already 3 or 4 companies doing it. Yes, the price should drop again after it stabilizes later.

    Give me a keyword, my 256 is too small.

    @ Anonymous10233 The original car was Xianyu, but now there seems to be an all-flash innovative one on Taobao, but it is more expensive

    Two days ago, I was watching that someone at Station B criticized that the 799 guy was at the level of a primary school student drawing board, which made the author come to check the line

    What's the use of making Macmini's storage so large? Isn't it necessary to equip it with an all-flash NAS?

    Some people in the comment area think that Apple's 10-layer board may be caused by poor design capabilities. I have worked on chip layout, so let's popularize the science. In the most robust case, a high-frequency signal wire needs to be made of three layers. The shape is similar to "back". The upper and lower wire is the ground wire, the middle is the signal wire, and the left and right holes are opened. Equivalent to a Faraday cage, preventing induced electricity from being generated around high-frequency signals. Under special circumstances, one strand should be divided into several strands. This is because the high-frequency line has skin effect. It needs to be disassembled into several pieces to improve the overcurrent ability. So be sure not to have any idea that 4 floors can beat 10 floors [laughing and crying]//I saw it in the comment area of station b
