Q: Can I connect two Mac Minis using an Ethernet cable?
I have two Mac Minis and would like to connect them together so that each Mac Mini can access the others hard drive. Do I simply connect them via Ethernet?
Thanks in advance,

Yes. If you do not want to use the "storage" compute as a coputer yo can boot that i Target disk mode and connect the two computer bu either Thunderbolt or FireWire. That way the internal drives of the "storage" Mac will show just like regular drives n the the other Mac.
The following apples to all OSX version but note that only newer computers have Thunderbolt.
