Questions been asked to death, but I’m looking into getting the base macmin with 256 gig. But, should I opt for the 16 gig ram upgrade? Current PC use has been using it for gaming, maya, blender, photoshop, and davinci resolve. I’m coming from a PC with 32 gigs of ram, and I don’t think I do anything particularly crazy intensive, and won’t be using the macmini for games. I also want to run some programs an external SSD. How well does Mac mini handle that?
Yes. The minimum spec has lower bandwidth. It’s a huge difference in overall system satisfaction by upgrading the internal memory and storage.
