I won’t bother going in to much detail since I don’t think you’ll ever moderate your blog posts and see this, but I did the check you suggested and, indeed, the link is at 1.5Gbps with the 500GB drive.

Now, the alternative would be to upgrade the drive myself, but it’s just a big bag of hurt! I’m too old to get any pleasure out of disasenbling hardware any more… There may be a difference between these two. What Ricky doesn’t say though, is if he has the 320 GB drive or the 500 GB drive. Apparently, 2010 Mac Minis will show you a Link Speed of 3 Gb/s (that’s what the Mac is capable of) but a Negotiated Link Speed of only 1.5 Gb/s (that’s what the HD is capable of)… On the screenshot above, you can see a Negatiated Link Speed of 3 Gb/s, which is good… except I made the capture on my Mac Pro. And that Ricky guy actually sounds like he knows damn well what he’s talking about!Īnyone got a Mac Mini 2010? Care to check the Negotiated Link Speed in your System Profiler? (About my mac > More info…) Now, according to this guy, the Mac Mini 2010 still comes with a stinky slow old SATA-1 drive, just as back in the days. I was looking into upgrading my 2006 Mac Mini (serving as a media server) with a 2010 model, just to get a bigger hard drive… and also a faster one!
