Q: Is the ram on the late 2014 mac mini still user upgradable?

I am wondering if the new Mac Mini has still user upgradable ram. So is it soldered on, or not?

    The new Mac Mini is a big mistake. You should be able to change RAM memory by your own. There is no other alternative. Upgrading RAM is the most important act with computers. Apple will drive faithful Apple users directly to Wintel. Back to RAM business, Apple!

    Yeah...this *****. I just bought the base model with 4gb ram thinking I would just buy my own ram and install it like I did on my wife's mini. CRAP!!!

    Yes it is, I have one (late 2012) and it is still the best mac mini out there if you want some power usage ability - the processor is still pretty **** good, and is a vast sight better than those in the new mac mini models.

     

    I put two 8GB ram modules in it (Corsair vengeance 1600Mz)

    I just purchased and upgraded on the spot at the Apple Store my new 2014 mac mini  up to 3.0Ghz, top of line-16GB and the 2TB Fusion Drive. You have to have it all done at the store when you purchase it now- as they say that it is not upgradeable by the user after it has left the store.
