Technical Notes
  1. Metal enclosures can attenuate the Bluetooth signal from your Mac mini. Using an external adapter such as Sonnet’s Long-Range USB Bluetooth 4.0 Micro Adapter (plugged into the USB port on the front of DuoModo xMac mini module can improve its performance.
  2. macOS 10.14.6+ supports both 512 and 4k block size SSDs, but macOS 10.13.6 supports only 4k block size SSDs. SSDs 1TB or larger are shipped from the factory programmed with a 4k block size. If you have smaller SSDs that are programmed with 512 block size, and you need to be compatible with macOS 10.13.6, you may need to reprogram your SSDs to a 4k block size. See this tech note for more details.
