My march 2009 mini is having start up problems. It started just after upgrading to Lion, but I think it was a coincidence. I get the 3 short 3 long 3 short beeps on startup indicating faulty ram. It will eventually boot after several attempts, sometimes with an hour long or more break. I've tried unplugging it to reset the SMC. I've switched 2 upgraded memory modules, tried 1 at a time and even put back the original 1GB stick alone. Is this likely a logic board failure in progress?

The question sort of got bypassed...is there a good place to get just the cable? I want to move a second hard drive into my mini as well. I've already pulled it apart before to swap in a SSD

You can have both. The trackpad has its own preferences panel so tracking speed will be separate for each device.

Does your tv have a 1:1 pixel mode? A lot of times its the default for dvi or vga connections but the hdmi ports default to a slightly zoomed in 16:9 mode to ensure any funky video artifacts on the edges are eliminated.

Binary Badger posted:Probably because they had to pay Apple's price on the part and tack on a profit. Also there is no way you can use a regular paper clip to take out the Mini logic board, it needs a pretty stiff alloy. I used 2 small screwdrivers on my mini. Worked just fine.

Magic trackpad is great...The only problem I have is I get a low battery warning after just a few days, even though the batteries last me 2 months. Using Eneloops too.

At the very least you can return the computer under two weeks if you don't like it. Or sell it after a few months. They hold their value very well.

I have os x on an ssd and a windows bootcamp install on a platter drive in my 2011 mac mini. Had a few power failures overnight and now the ssd wont show up. Is it likely dead? Holding option when booting only shows the windows install. No recovery or os x option appears, The mini is a pain to disassaemble to get the hard drive out to test in an external box
