Part racehorse, all workhorse
In addition to being a great desktop computer, Mac mini powers everything from home automation to giant render farms. And now Mac mini has even more compute power for industrial-grade tasks. So whether you're running a live concert sound engine or testing your latest iOS or iPadOS app, Mac mini is the shortest distance between a great idea and a great result. -
Climb in, geek out
Mac mini features high-performance 2666MHz DDR4 SO-DIMM memory for faster rendering, working with massive files, or running multiple virtual machines. -
Haul apps
Mac mini includes all-flash PCIe-based storage, with up to four times the read speeds of previous flash options. So you can load giant files and launch apps faster than ever. -
Next-generation security
Mac mini features the Apple T2 Security Chip - second-generation custom Mac silicon designed by Apple to make Mac mini even more secure. The T2 Security Chip consolidates several controllers into one and includes a Secure Enclave coprocessor that provides the foundation for encrypted storage and secure boot capabilities. -
I/O, I/O, it's off to work you go
With a variety of ports, Mac mini is ready for a variety of workflow configurations. Thunderbolt 3 is a powerful and versatile port - and Mac mini has four of them. The HDMI 2.0 port delivers more bandwidth than its predecessor, so you can enjoy faster frame rates.
