Apple Mac mini

The Mac mini with Lion Server is not a big enterprise server, it's targeted at the small office/home office (SOHO) market and small and medium businesses (SMB).

The Mac mini with Lion Server is a real improvement on an already solid performer. In its target market (companies with up to 200 users), it is an outstanding performer and is also a capable utility server in a wide range of usage needs. The Mac mini...

Apple's latest Mac Mini server is an innovative and functional small business solution with huge appeal to style-conscious companies already sold on the Mac platform. Snow Leopard Server is remarkably affordable, although Windows Small Business Server...

Tiny and very stylish ; 1TB of storage ; Wired and wireless network interfaces ; Integrated web, email, address book and calendaring servers ; Wiki and blogging applications ; Simple management ; Unlimited user licence

Limited upgrade options ; USB port can't be used for backup ; No eSATA expansion ; More complex tasks can't be accomplished using base management utilities

Other useful options include support for Apple Time Machine backups and VPN remote access. You can also configure the Mac Mini server as an internet gateway, although a second USB Ethernet adapter (£20) will be needed if you don't want to do this using...

One of the most aesthetically beautiful business servers we've ever seen, this tiny, peppy machine makes for a quiet desktop server that's perfect for light-duty home and SMB server tasks.

Setup in as little as 10 steps. Faster processor and more memory than the Mac mini client. Lots of storage for SMBs or a home network. New features add to the ultra-easy Mac experience. Powerful command-line option for advanced tasks and management

Tricky Active Directory integration. Not for heavy-work-load environments

Review With Apple's Xserve now discontinued [1], the only two Mac servers available are the Mini and the Mac Pro Server. The Mac Mini is Apple's lowest-cost computer yet in its more expensive server incarnation it dispenses with the optical drive of...

The size-zero supermodel of the server world – but with hidden strength and stamina.

As all Dr Who fans know, the Tardis time machine is a lot bigger on the inside than out. A seemingly impossible feat that Apple appears to have replicated with its tiny Mac mini which can ...

By cramming in extra hardware and tweaking the OS, Apple has managed the seemingly impossible, turning its tiny Mac mini into a respectable small business server, complete with file and print sharing, email, web, wiki and blogging tools. It works best...

Small businesses will be stunned to find all that's on offer from this bargain machine.

Fitting everything that should be said about this device into a single page is every bit as hard as fitting all the hardware and processing power (now a nippy 2.5GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM from new) into the tiny Mac mini case. It adds up to a...

Desde su primera aparición, el Mac mini ha tenido una legión de seguidores como servidor para pequeños entornos. En efecto, tiene unas dimensiones mínimas, apenas hace ruido y tan solo consume unos 14 vatios en espera

La inclusión del sistema Snow Leopard Server con licencias ilimitadas prácticamente gratis ; Funcionamiento extremadamente silencioso ; Bajo consumo

El sistema de discos RAID es configurado por software, no vía controladora hardware, lo que le resta algo de seguridad y reduce sus prestaciones globales

Använder alla på kontoret Macar? I så fall är det klart att även servrarna ska levereras av Apple. Lilla, söta Mac Mini Server passar perfekt för det lilla Mac-baserade kontoret.

Tyst och smidig. Gott om portar. Enkel att jobba med. Prisvärd med tanke på att OS X Server ingår

Fläktarna går hårt under last. Inga expansionsmöjligheter internt. Det grafiska skalet går inte att ta bort

En “serverklassad” ny Mac från Apple är inte vardagsmat. När Apple nu äntligen har insett att de kan tjäna pengar på att sälja Mac Mini som en server, något som resten av världen har förstått och insett sedan den dagen då maskinen släpptes, så kan man...

När jag hade ett samtal med Apple tidigare i veckan angående Mac Mini Server så framstod det ganska tydligt att de inte vet riktigt vilket ben de vill stå på. Apples representant ville egentligen mest bara dra igenom nyheterna med Mac Mini Server och...

Apple could have deviated from the standard Mini a bit more. No need for an IR remote, Bluetooth, WiFi, capability of connecting two monitors and heavy usage of RAM for video. Could use ESATA, 2nd Ethernet. But beyond that it works fine as an advanced...

Alan, "USB port can't be used for backup" is rubbish. I currently use the USB port on my mac mini server for just this.

We are using in our architecture firm the mac mini server (previous model) with snow leopard server for more than a year. In every day practice of SMBs it is indeed a very trustworthy hardware / software utilization. Our primary application for the...

The mini is a high value server OS purchase. I decided to go for the server in lieu of the standard since the hardware price alone ( dual, higher speed drives, 4GB of ram, and cpu) seemed like a good value. I have a mixture of macs and windows machines...

Simply put, the highlights of the PCMAG review are accurate, but the NUMEROUS errors in this review make me wonder if they even know what a Mac is...?? Misquoted OS version (numerous times), misquoted software utilities, misquoted capabilities,...

This Mac Mini has been my 3rd and last Apple PCs in 10 months. I did some research and turns out that the whole Mini line has had issues with Logic Board since the Mini first launched.... Why hasn't Apple addressed this issue? Because they could care...

The apple mac mini provided an easy switch from traditional pc setup without having to buy new monitors. the apple software a plus, next up the lion server.

Bought of the these for home and for work. The one for home was noticeably slow even on one monitor. Slow switching between tabs, etc. For the work one I upgraded the ram

I like Mac Mini and I've been using previous version of Mac Mini Server with OS X 10.6, it does pretty good job. I was planning to buy more servers while the new version came out with Lion. So I got one and gave it a try. Overall, hardware performance...
