Hi all! This is my first post here.
I'm on my 50s and I have been playing with hardware since .. 1987, my first mac was the SE.
Now I'm on the software side of IT for living and even if I can still do some hacking I can not keep pace with hdw, that's why I'm asking some help here.
I replaced my Man Mini 2011 with an internal SSD. It works fine but it overheats and the mac freezes after a while. Which solution do you suggest?
I 'm considering:
1. externalize the SSD but I do not want to loose speed and still being able to boot. My first idea was to extend the SATA connector .. is it doable? Alternatively to connect it to USB port or Thunderbolt ot Firewire, but how? I'm lost here with adapters, cables, cases ... it blows my mind.
2. cooling it
thanks if you can give me an advice
all the best
