Is this compatible with a late 2012 Mac mini? It has space for 2 2.5in drives

your Mac needs a special MSATA card slot for it to be compatible. I do not think apple uses this technology. You can however use a standard SSD drive for your Mac Mini.

Sorry, I do not know anything about Macs. But, I would check your owners manual. The SATA connector should be the same, but the height of the drive could be an issue, it might not fit in your HDD slot. Good luck.

My Mac is USB 2.0 as well and the WD HD is perfectly compatible, no problems encountered.

Yes I believe so should all be in the specs. I have had no trouble with the drive, Seems very reliable using it with my macbook retina.

I forgot something, it is two pieces what I bought. The maximum amount of memory supported in my mac mini is 4Gb, then each memory (two) was 2Gb each

I say yes, supports 2.5I think you misread. The description says 'single 3.5" or 2.5" SATA drive' It also says 2.5 is ok on their website. I only used 3.5 on these but it definitely looks capable of having 2.5.Side note: Make sure the side of the 2.5 HD is flat. I remember on Macbook HDs, they have a little nub that sticks out where the screws are, which would make it not fit in this dock since it lays flat against the side wall. Would need to remove the nub on the HD first.

It is USB 2.0 standard compliant. It will take a SATA II/III or IDE drive. If you Mac has USB 2.0 standard ports, then, if your drive is SATA II/III or IDE, it will work.

My guess is it will work fine if the interface is laptop IDE. I never took apart a mac mini.

Yes, it is a standard size Sata. It does not matter whether you are using mac or PC they both use the same kind of hard drives, they are just formatted differently

This is the adapter only for a Thunderbolt interface, the drive itself is a separate purchase, you can by various sizes and I believe the standard interface is USB 3.0. You can also daisy chain devices, I use two external drives on my Mac mini, this with a 2tb drive for my ITunes library and portable 1tb Seagate drive for time machine backup.

I can't say for sure - I've put it in my late 2011 MacBook Pro 13". As far as I know (99% sure) the 2012 models have the exact same specs when it comes to the superdrive space. It will work with ANY SATA drive, whether it's HD, Hybrid or SSD. For $8 I'd take the risk!

As long as the Mac Mini has SATA it should work. I am using mine in a similar product: Zotac Zbox.

I think it's not necessary if talking about mac book pro. But if you need to fit a 2.5 drive in a 3.5 bay, you should have no problem. It fits any of the standard ssd an hdd in avaliable in the market.

Yes it is, but I've only personally tried it with the 1TB 2.5in BackUp Plus Drives.

Hi, Although I have 2 older MacBooks I installed this drive on, it seems to be ok on the Mac Mini also. I would suggest you check out YouTube first and search "Mac Mini 2011 hard drive and ram upgrade." You really need to check out the specs on your specific machine too. There are space considerations, not just will it work. The guy on YouTube was using this drive as a secondary drive. Also, try Googling your situation. That's how I figure things out. Hope this helps. Steve R.

The keyboard is fully Mac compatable. If your Mac Mini 2012 has a usb port to plug it into it will work.
