Hello,

Just one question:
Is the Memory and the internal disks DIY parts in the current MacMini (early '09)?
I would rather upgrade those parts myself to save some money. This system would be for my dad and I don't want to sacrifice the warranty.

I don't know what you mean by internal disk(s), but the hard drive and ram are user replaceable. The optical drive probably is, but that is a bit more involved. Google for a fixit site and you'll find out for yourself just how much you can replace.

Yeas, I mean the internal hard drive and I mean the Memory modules (RAM).
I did google for those but every fixit site was related to the "older" Mac Mini and all mentioned that the warranty voids after opening it.
Maybe Apple changed the design or the DIY policy at the newer Mac Mini. That's I wanna know.
