I know this is extremely scatter brained. The more research I do, the more confused I become
I need a mentor to guide me thru this and I will gladly PayPal gift for that!
I am upgrading my late 2012 mini. i7 x 4 @ 230mhz, 16 gig RAM, 1 TeraBite 5400 HD (EveryMac # I7-3615QM)
Basically stock but for the RAM upgrade I did.
I have3 external HD's. FW800 2T for Time Machine with 815.05G open, FW400 250G with 63.81G open (Also has Mavericks installed)
and a 200G usb2 with not much space left (the complete Law&Order series).
I am going to add an SSD (120 or 240)? from OWC. With the data doubler kit and discounted Parallels 10.
US$134.00 with free 7 day shipping or 2 day shipping at US$9.80. I have a new copy of Win 7 Home Premium (legal)
I have many questions.
1. Will cold weather hurt the DVD and SSD in transit?
2. Is this a good deal? I have been looking for a legal Parallels 10 discounted.
3. I think I can do the physical installation of the SSD
4. I am intimidated by the software stuff to do. How do I transfer OS Yosemite and apps to SSD Including Win 7 and parallels?
5. Than there is the Trim Enabler and Yosemite deal?
I have more questions but as I stated I'm scatter brained.
So this is a start.
Please forgive me for any rules I may have fudged.
Thanks.
