Mac Mini HDD to SSD Samsung EVO 850 Upgrade | Mid 2011
Октябрь 29, 2017
We know how slow the original Mac Mini's hard drive is and it has only gotten worse with each Mac OS X update. Before installing the SSD drive, I cloned it using a hard drive dock. In this video, I upgraded my Mid 2011 stock Toshiba 5400 MK5065GSXF hard drive to a Samsung SSD 850 EVO. I also got to use my new Tekton Everybit 27-piece precision tool kit.

2006 Mac Pro vs. 2009 Mac Pro
I've waited long enough to finally find a good deal on a 2009 Mac Pro. Here's a basic performance comparison of my 8-core 3.0 GHz 2006 Mac Pro vs. my new-to-me 8-core 2.26 GHz 2009 Mac Pro.
Disclosure: My 2006 Mac Pro was flashed from 1, 1 to 2, 1 and the 2009 Mac Pro was flashed from 4, 1 to 5, 1 before the tests.
Ready to make the jump? Already upgraded to a 2009? Let us know in the comments section if it was worth it.

Mac Mini Upgrade SSD - External SSD Upgrade for Final Cut Pro X

Today’s video is for folks who have a Mac, like a Mac mini, and want a faster hard drive for better performance. You could always replace the internal hard drive with an SSD, but that’s a pretty complicated job. For those of you who don’t want to use this technique, here’s a simple way to improve your computer’s performance using an external SSD. And this improves your performance a lot, when it comes to things like video editing. I’ll be using a PNY Elite Portable SSD today, but you can use any portable SSD you’d like. I’ll leave links to some portable SSD’s that’ll work well for this upgrade, right below this video. The process is pretty much the same whether you have a Mac Mini, iMac or even a MacBook. And it’s probably very helpful for folks who plan to use their Macs for Final Cut Pro. So let’s get started.
The first step is pretty simple. Plug the SSD into any USB port on your computer. You’re going to have to leave the drive plugged in permanently, so make sure you’re not going to need that USB port. Now in case you need more USB ports you could always use a powered usb hub like this one. And i’ll leave a link to that below. Once the SSD turns on and is recognized by your mac, you’re going to need to format it. Formatting it removes any data on the drive and ensures that the drive works efficiently with your Mac. Now if there are any files on this SSD that you need, make sure to transfer them before you format it. To format it, click on launchpad, then click on the icon called “other” and then click on Disk Utility. Once that opens up, click on your SSD, which in my case is “PNY Elite” and then click on the Erase button on top. Now you might wanna give the SSD a new name. I’ll call mine PNY Elite FCP, because I am going to be using it mostly with Final Cut Pro. Then click the drop down menu next to the word Format and select the OS X Extended (Journaled) format. And then click Erase and wait for it to finish formatting. Once it finishes formatting, it might ask if you’d like to use it with Time Machine. Click dont use.
Now most people are going to want to do this upgrade to ensure Final Cut pro runs faster. And in order to do this, I am first going to create a dedicated folder on my SSD for Final Cut. Double Click on the SSD which is visible on your desktop. Right click in the white space when it opens up and then select “New Folder”. I am going to call my new folder “Final Cut New Library”. And I am going to ensure that all my Final Cut Events, Media and Final videos are all stored in this folder. Storing your entire library on the SSD, helps Final Cut run much faster especially, if you have limited RAM, a base processor and a mechanical hard drive, like the one on this Mac Mini that I’m using today.
To ensure all the events are stored on the SSD, open up Final Cut. Click File, New and then select Library. It the asks you where you want to Store this Library and what you want to call it. I am going to select my SSD and then open up the Folder we created. Then I am going to call my New Library, “Final Cut New”. Then Hit Save. You’ll notice on the events bar on the Left, a new Library called Final Cut New has been created. Now if you click on the Library and then create a new event in that library all the media will now be stored on the SSD. Now for any events you want to bring from your old library, simply click and drag the event from the old to the new library. And to ensure you don’t have your old library visible and don’t accidentally use it, right click on the Old Library, and click Close Library. Having the Library saved on the SSD, makes importing clips into an event much faster and also prevents the computer from freezing up when editing. And this is because of the SSD’s faster Read and Write Speeds.
For things like photo editing, I’d recommend saving these files on the SSD first and then editing them in things like Photoshop. This will also ensure the editing software performs better.
