I will be selling my mid-year 2011 Mac Mini.

Before selling the unit, I want to do a clean reinstall of OS X to remove all traces of my earlier work and personal data.

Since Apple no longer supplies backup installation discs, can someone provide the detailed instructions on how I can clean off my hard drive and do a fresh reinstall of OS X.

I am running Yosemite on this Mini.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.
