The HDMI port supports 1920 by 1200 on an HDMI display or on a DVI display using a HDMI-to-DVI adapter. The Thunderbolt port is backward compatible with the Mini Display Port and supports an external monitor with a 2560 by 1600 pixel display while passing an audio signal as well. This Apple computer will support simultaneous dazzling displays at 1920 by 1200 and 2560 by 1600 through its two display ports.

Dual capabilities also extend to the built-in storage. Although the standard hard drive is a 500GB 5400rpm Serial ATA drive, a 750 GB unit at 7200 rpm is also supported. There is also room for a second hard drive or SSD to be installed inside the aluminum enclosure.
Jul 20, 2011 - The 2011 Mac mini can use the same $79 USB SuperDrive as the MacBook Air. The base configurations runs at 2.3 GHz, and 2 GB of RAM is.
This mid-2011 Apple desktop model originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion), but it is fully upgradable directly to a system software called Sierra for additional performance enhancements. In all, this entry-level Apple 2.3 GHz Mac Mini A1347 model is fully capable of performing tasks with seamless productivity and graphics, playing casual games, and streaming HD movies over Wi-Fi. Great device - needs 8 GB RAM and SSD to see full potential. 4GB Ram is not enough to run this machine - you need 8gig unless you want to wait a month for every Simple operation. Swapping in an SSD with the added RAM - it halls ass. The downside of the 2011. It can't run Mojave.
High Sierra is last OS it runs. I thought is was a 2012 when I bought it. I had put 2012 in the search and did not pay attention. Other than that, the older upgradeable Mac Mini machines are gold. That is - up to 2012.
Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned. Awesome machine This my second Mac Mini. I purchased this one for my elderly parents who have never used a Mac before. The learning curve was a bit steep for them, but the stability and ease of use of the Mac more than compensate for this.
The cool thing is that their existing monitor, keyboard, mouse and printer all work perfectly with the Mac Mini. For me it is actually much easier to help them with technical problems since I have a Mac Mini at home and i can walk them through any tech issues they have. And of course Lion OSX is perhaps the most stable, user friendly OS out there.
I tried to set up Remote Management, but they are behind a cable modem, and I was not able to connect to their IP. I could probably get it to work if I tried hard and long enough, but at this point most everything is working f ine so I really don't need the Remote Management feature. Good Entertainment system computer. The Mac Mini line of Macs are an excellent performing computer for attaching to entertainment systems. Compact good Intel Core i5 processor & just enough of a graphics card to handle any movie streaming you would need to do. HDMI output so you can attach to TV or AV Receiver. Plenty of room to put in 2 notebook size drives to store your media.
Supports 8GB of RAM and the latest OS. All metal to keep it cool. Only ding is the lack of a DVD/BD Drive slot. However you can connect an external one. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned.
