    SSD for running 2014 Mini

    I just bought the midrange 2.4Ghz/8 Gb Ram Mini with the the 1 Tb SATA (windows laptop was dying and Best Buy had a sale). Like I'd heard, Sierra is slow on the this Hard drive. It seems running the computer on an external SSD seems to be the solution. I can't seem to find all the info I need...
