The idea of setting it up with вЂњRemote DesktopвЂќ seems like a recipe that will work against вЂњforgettingвЂќ about it (curiosity will get the best of me and I will constantly check it for updates/stability etc), but I will now be watching the LinusTechTips video that was posted above just to see how itвЂ™s done and what itвЂ™s all about. My end goal from the beginning was to set it up and forget it is even there.

I guess I wanted to do the absolute вЂњminimumвЂќ steps, just so after I share it here anyone else can follow a simple process. The Mac works exactly as intended with iOS iTunes Remote as an Audio player so will keep the settings as they are. The Mac let out a sound to confirm the shortcut enabled, and the light quickly turned off (Mac shutdown).

I have shut it down properly this time by just plugging in a keyboard and using the вЂњ Control-Option-Command-PowerвЂќ button shortcut. Going to connect it once more to the monitor just to make sure nothing strange is going on (I did force shutdown using power button twice, once to move it and another time to insert the HDMI dummy plug). (Probably less of a headache just to format an external drive to exFAT and done it the old fashion way, I thought I was being smart by using вЂњMigrationвЂќ, it was pretty damn fast though to transfer 80GB).

The main speed bump was the whole вЂњMigrationвЂќ process, I was told at the store to update the MacOS to latest version first, so I did that (which required signing into Apple ID etc), then using the Migration process creates вЂњmoreвЂќ accounts which complicated things.

I am doing ok, I rarely ever вЂњadd new contentвЂќ to the archive so once I get settled in I think itвЂ™s going to be fine. It is my first Mac so there was a bit of learning curve already. But like you say, as an audio component in a good system it's actually a good value, will hold value and is super easy to update and maintain. I switched to Roon from JRiver (again) and the desktop and phone app work seamlessly, including the Tidal integration, to various Apple TV's and an Airport Express to 3 buildings on my local network and having 3 streams going to different output zones is effortless for the Mini.Д¬ouldn't be happier. I run my Plex server on the machine as well, no issues. I can VNC into it from my iPhone7 for complete desktop control. I use mine as my main work machine too and never had a glitch in audio doing anything. Silent operation (I sit 2 feet away), the base model is more than adequate for anything but the most intensive video work and external SSD storage is also silent and lightning fast for file storage. I still keep a 2012 Mini stacked with this one though to run Adobe CS6, even at idle and with a SSD installed it does generate some fan sound and will more if used for video viewing. Essentially you want an aluminium unibody Mac Mini without the superdrive to meet the recommended specs.ДЄlsoвЂ¦ Yes, the Mac MiniвЂ™s seem to hold their values crazy well.Just to add in - I got a M1 Mini when they were first released and have no regrets especially now that Windows Arm can VM in Parallels. The short version on another page is a Core i3+ with 2GB RAM+ДЄ 2010 Mac Mini will give you a C2D 2.4GHz, the 2011+ units have i5/i7.

Single 1080p transcode: Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz.

PLEX MAC MINI 2012 720P

Single 720p transcode: Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz.No transcoding: Core 2 Duo 1.6GHz (NAS devices based on ARM or PowerPC processors should also be capable of at least one stream with no transcoding).If you want very basic minimum suggestions: Generally speaking, if you have two Plex apps requiring transcoded content at the same time, that will require about twice the CPU processing power compared to if there was only one app playing content. The most basic thing to remember is that the more Plex apps you have playing content at the same time, the more CPU power youвЂ™ll need.
