Please don’t mind me asking - is it possible to upgrade the RAM in the new version of the Mac Mini from March 2020 as described for the 2018 Model? It would think so, but would like to make sure for my purchase.

Cheers

I have been running Catalina Public Beta. I got a notice that an update was available, so I updated. When I came back a few hours later, my Mac Mini was shut down. No light or noise on pushing power button. Verified power available and then contacted Apple support. They verified it was still under warranty until November and made an appointment at the local store. Taking it in today and will follow up.

Just got the latest Mac mini and I need to add an external power button to it with long wires so I can turn it on and off from a distance. In the previous models I was always able to trace back the wires to the pins and splice the cables but with this ultra flat cable now, anyone knows where I need to add my wires?

Thanks a bunch!

Is this at the same level as the iMac Pro, which was something crazy like 3GB/s read, and 2.5GB/s write?

Already had another working 2018 Mac mini, so I switched the logicboard, so to test the power supply......the already working Mac mini still turn on with the psu of the system that doesn't turn on, so the psu is not the problem, tried the bad system with the psu of the one that's operational...still nothing...no light, no sound, just completely dead......also tried the fix for systems that shows same symptoms after an update (T2 restore steps with Apple Configurator). still don't see the system......so I am inclining myself to a bad chip somewhere in the logic board.....is there any basic troubleshooting steps that I can use to measure transistors continuity or any other steps that anyone is aware of...thanks!!

I have a mac mini late 2018 A1993. It was working fine since I bought it about 4 years ago. Few months ago suddenly shut it down and won't power up anymore, no sound, now fan. Suspecting a faulty psu I replaced it with a new one with same result.

Can anyone please advise what will be the next step to get it fixed.

Thank you in advance for any advice

Is this fixable? I hope I didn’t just turn my brand new Mini into a paperweight!

Any help appreciated!!

Thanks!

It was actually quite difficult to debug that the issue was in the RAM. Now that I have, I can reliably reproduce the issue and am now stuck with the original 8 Gigs of RAM.

Is anyone else having this issue ? Has anyone solved this so far ?
