It is the same size & fits on top. So it will help that low rpm mini.

I`m guessing it retails at £150 -£200?

You can get a regular 120GB hard drive on Amazon for only £85! Its is usb(2)only but seems ok to me.

I know you can get an external drive cheaper, just as you can buy a pc cheaper.
but I like the design.

That's a pretty cool external drive. I'll definitly keep it in mind if I ever need to get one for my mini.

That really is cool but now it comes to which accessory to order.... this or http://www.plasticsmith.com/minitower . I really like the idea of vertically mounting the mini for a even less space consumption... ah the decisions.

That mini tower is SICK! (as in the California dialect for good

) I am a huge fan of the clear acrylic over white/gray plastic look. The Cube is the best looking Apple ever made, IMO, and that mini tower makes the mini look more like the sibling of the Cube that it really is.
