Wow, I worked on my MacMini after watching the video.


But BEWARE!


That OWC video misses a crucial step! (I emailed them)


My MacMini had a bit of "invisible" black tape holding the disk connector to the disk, very hard to see. When I pulled off the connector, it came apart !


That bit of tape must be something Apple added, or some manufacturers added, but it really messed me up. I had to send my MacMini off to be repaired, at a cost about $200 including parts and labour.
