This is the lower end model. Apple kept the higher end intel mini in the line-up, which means they intend to replace that with something more powerful, which may add the 10G option.
- ogre_codes 6y agoI wish I shared your confidence in this. Apple has been all over the map with the mini so it's really hard to tell. If they did though, it looks like there is plenty of space to turn this into a real powerhouse with the right CPU.
- ksec 6y agoIt used to be complicated because of the Intel SKUs. Now Apple will simply use the next M Chip on MacBook Pro 16" and put it into Mac mini. And that should have spare PCI-E lane for 10Gbps Ethernet.
- ogre_codes 6y agoI don't think it was that simple. There were some massive gaps in the mini-upgrade cycle which didn't correspond to gaps in Intel's CPU lineup. More recently though, it seems like Apple got the memo that people love these things. Hopefully we'll see a consistent flow of ever-improving minis along-side the MacBooks.
