Hi-
I have Snow Leopard server running on a Mac Mini from 2010. I decided I really need some redundancy so want to get another and sync them in case of failure. Can I buy the latest Mac Mini model and install Snow Leopard server on it or will it not let me due to some firmware limitation? I've been able to do revert on other models and not others. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Neither Snow Leopard or Lion will work on the new Minis. They are strictly Mountain Lion.
The latest Mac mini Serve has got OS X Mountain Lion Server, so you can't install Snow Leopard Server because the hardware isn't compatible with Snow Leopard
****-So I have to find the latest Mac Mini that will run Snow Leopard Server? I refuse to upgrade to that crap they call server nowadays. It's Snow Leopard server till I move to Linux. Thing is, those Minis cost nearly as much now as they did when brand new. I feel like I'm getting ripped off. Oh well. Thanks for the quick answer guys!
You're welcome
you might be able to run SL server virtually on ML server
I haven't tried it myself
Can I install a version of snow leopard server on a newer Mac Mini model?
