[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1658197, member: 56379"] First let me say that if you do not want to setup a new account on the Mini (want it reedy for the new owner to setup their account)…I don't think that there's a way to verify the HD size via the OS or via software. If all you want to do is verify the size/capacity if the Mac-Mini's HD…I think that we can do this in one of two ways (assuming that the HD wasn't upgraded since new)…it has the same HD when in it when it was purchased new. 1. If it's an older Mac-Mini (2009 and earlier)…there might be a label on the back of Mini (near the ports)…on the bottom of the Mini, or inside where you get access to the ram. This label has the hardware specs of the Mini when it shipped. I don't think that 2010 and newer Mini's have a this label (my 2010 Mini doesn't). 2. If you know the serial number of the Mini…we can look up its original specs online. - Nick [/QUOTE]
