Good day,
I have recently bought a Mac Mini 2011 model for my living room and when I connected it and installed the latest OSX onto it I then decided to install iStat Pro for the Dashboard. Now on the box it said there was a 500gb HDD inside and when I looked at the iStat it showed up with 2 HDD's.
One showed a 120gb HDD
the other a 380gb HDD
Both together do equal 500GB but I was wondering if this was 2 hard drives or if they were partitioned and is this something apple does with mac mini's? I personally would have thought it would have been one hard drive of 500gb. Don't know if the owner before me partitioned it or again, if this is how apple distributes Mac Mini's.
It's definitely not a Mac mini server.
i5 2.3GHZ
8gb Ram
Intel 3000 HD graphics
Kind regards,
Robin
