So I have a Late 2012 Mac Mini that came with a Fusion Drive. I have a spare 7200 RPM drive that I'm considering putting in my Mac by removing the 5400 RPM drive that is already in there and making a hopefully faster Fusion Drive. Has anyone done this before? I'm not expecting a major speed boost, but I feel like it will offer some improvement.
I keep reading that you need a Data Doubler kit in order to make use of two drive slots inside the Mac Mini, but if I have an Apple-installed Fusion Drive already, do I even need a Data Doubler? Obviously I'll need the right tools to perform the operation, but I'm just not sure.
Also, I see the data doubler kit comes in a lower bay variation and upper bay variation, but if I already have a fusion drive installed, aren't both bays being utilized?
