Adding of 1 or 2 TB Hard disk

[Senate97]

Hi,

I just purchased a new mac mini yesterday for my home entertainment and file server use.

Can I check if i am able to add in another 1 or 2 TB hard disk inside my mac mini?

minis can only take in small 2.5" drives, which go up to 1TB I believe.

They go up to 1.5 TB.

will the 12.5mm drives fit into the mini?

9.5mm & 12.5mm

will the 12.5mm drives fit into the mini?

Its my understanding that its 9.5mm in the stock HD location and 12.5mm in the Optical Drives location.

if you purchased a 2010 mini with 2 500gb hdd drives and server osx just leave the drives alone.
