I was admiring the latest Mac mini from Apple with the new M4 chip and read amazing reviews on it, especially for its low price and thought HMM. But then I saw the storage space offered was MEH. My existing Mini is seven years old and has 1 TB storage space which will fill up soon because it acts as my file server and with all of the Time Machine backups as well. What’s a guy to do?
Also, because of my desk and home office arrangement, I don’t want unsightly cords in the way physically and visually.
Then I had it.
Why not plug in my existing 10 TB external hard drive to the Mac Mini that is currently connected to my television display and enjoy the remote access and is also invisible? Will it work?
It works. This screenshot is from my desktop dialed into the Mac mini file server and the Archives on the external hard drive. Problems solved all around with 8.92 TB left!
