    2011 mini server I7 or a 2012 mini i5?

    Grabbing a mini for a project to work on/a spare computer and found a mid 2011 Mac mini server I7 and a late 2013 Mac mini 2.5 ghz i5 for the same price. Will be doing the same ssd/ram upgrades. Which you suggest I grab? Not sure if the quad core on the previous year is faster than the base...

    Mid 2012 Macbook Pro 13" i5 dual core 2.5ghz

I have upgraded it with two 4gb RAMs, and there is just the 500gb HDD for storage. Now I know it's not super fast but I want to edit 4k videos or at least be capable of downscaling...
