[QUOTE="lrd, post: 1478286, member: 176682"] I guess what it comes down to is the SSD. I have to decide if a dedicated 240 GB (vs Fusion 128GB) is worth the reduced performance of the Mini. I'm seriously leaning towards the iMac right now. I keep getting hints that the Mini can hold both an HDD and an SSD (i.e. keep the 1TB HD and add an SDD) which would be fine but the Apple store "Genius" told me that the Mini can only hold one drive (the server version however can hold two). Besides, I don't need the HD...I have a 6TB NAS with a free slot for another 2TB drive. [/QUOTE]
