Shipping time was okay - at this price point for a fully working computer I cannot complain. Item was packaged well. Item is also in great shape and very clean, both inside and out. Exactly as described. Pleasure doing business with you, I’m sure I’ll be back for another later on. Thank you!

Fast computer for data intensive usage.
I recently upgraded to Pro Tools 12 and needed a computer that keep up with the required minimum specs. It's an LE system but I'm constantly maxing out my track count along with running video simultaneously (I work in Post). The i7 is more than capable of handling the software and the 8GBs of RAM keep it from lagging and freezing up on me every two seconds (as was the case with a brand new i5 Mac Mini I bought but had to return as it was horrible at multitasking). This computer is fast can handle me doing multiple tasks at once. I also swapped out one of 4GB ram cards for an 8GB card, which thanks to the fact that this is a 2012 model, was simple and a breeze. The only drawback I've had with it is that the computer can get a bit warm fairly quickly. So far it hasn't proven to be ...

I would highly recommend this computer if you need something that's compact, but still pretty powerful.

Good, but not the best
First time I fired it up, everything was perfect. Then, after two more re-boots since then (within two weeks of arrival), the fan kicks in and is the loudest I've ever had with a Mac computer (and I've been using them since 1987). So, that's disappointing. Other than that, everything about ordering, speed in delivery, and the rest of the mini is fine.

2012 i7 2.6 1TB 16gb/RAM
My particular unit is a CTO (configure to order) i7 quad core 2.6GHz with 16gb of RAM. This machine screams! It also has a 1TB+ factory-installed fusion drive in addition to turbo-boost capability. As fast as this system is, I can't even imagine how exciting the 3.0 configuration must be. It's a shame that Apple chose to downgrade the Mac mini to a dual core processor after this model. IMO, this machine is the most outstanding and flexible mini to date. I was fortunate enough to get one at an unbelievably low price in nearly new condition. Please refer to the everymac site for more detailed info on this. They are an excellent source for all info on Macs.My particular unit is a CTO (configure to order) i7 quad core 2.6GHz with 16gb of RAM. This machine screams!

Fusion Drive not set up properly
When I received the mini, the SSD and HHD of the fusion drive were shown as separate drives through finder, disk manager and on the desk top. I had had no experience with Fusion Drives in the past so I had no idea that it was a problem. I tried three or four different ways to migrate my data from my existing iMac to the mini but time after tiime there was not enough space according to ""Migration Assistant". I then resorted to manually installing the os on the SSD and manually moving other data files to the HHD hoping I could get them to work. After two days of this, I said to myself that it should be this hard to do. So I finally did some research on what a fusion drive is and how is is created and supposed to be how it's to be exposed to the operating system. After following the ...

So I finally did some research on what a fusion drive is and how is is created and supposed to be how it's to be exposed to the operating system. After following the steps to create "fuse" the SSD and HHD together, The drive appeared as one to the system and I was able to use migration assistant to move all my data. As fusion drives seem to be rare, even today, I just chalked it up to a positive learning experience. As far as the general performance of this model I am thoroughly how it's speed measures up to even much newer iMacs. Very happy with the performance. I would only advice against considering purchasing this model or one this old is if one needed a system that output modern day resolutions and response time. For me, I've had 3 iMacs and to MacBook Pros. I'm very happy with this best of the minis Apple ever made, with a 24" monitor.

Best Mac Mini year yet
The one I purchased was supposed to be an i7 quad core processor but turned out to be an i5 dual core. The seller made an adjustment to the price and it was still a good value. The late 2012 Mac Mini is, in my opinion, the best option for someone wanting a Mac with expandability options. It can take up to 16GB of ram and will hold two 2.5" hard drives. One with the i7 processor, a SSD and 16GB would handle almost any task you could undertake. I'm using mine as a media server and video streamer for my home entertainment center. It is capable of running OS Sierra and Windows 10 via Apples Boot Camp. This gives it several more years before it becomes obsolete.The one I purchased was supposed to be an i7 quad core processor but turned out to be an i5 dual core.
