Mac Mini: 3.0GHz 6-core Intel i5 8th-Gen/8GB/512GB SSD

Re-engineered in no small way.

New eighth-generation  6‑core processor

Faster 2666MHz DDR4 memory up to 64GB

Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C), HDMI 2.0, and available 10Gb Ethernet

Blazing-fast all-flash storage with up to 2TB SSD

Part racehorse. All workhorse.

In addition to being a great desktop computer, Mac mini powers everything from home automation to giant render farms. And now with eighth-generation Intel quad-core and processor and Intel UHD Graphics 630, Mac mini has even more compute power for industrial-grade tasks. So whether you’re running a live concert sound engine or testing your latest iOS app, Mac mini is the shortest distance between a great idea and a great result.

Connections and Expansion

With a variety of ports, Mac mini is ready for a variety of workflow configurations. Thunderbolt 3 is our most powerful and versatile port ever — and Mac mini has four of them. The new HDMI 2.0 port delivers more bandwidth than its predecessor, so you can enjoy faster frame rates. And now Mac mini can be configured with 10Gb Ethernet so it's ready to move mountainous files and monstrous data up to 10 times faster.

Four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports with support for:

Thunderbolt 3 gives you some seriously productive possibilities. Transfer data at up to 40Gb/s. Charge and power external devices. Connect up to two 4K displays — and even a third with HDMI 2.0 — or one 5K display. Or pair Mac mini with an eGPU for desktop-class graphics performance.
