I just got the new mac mini i7 quad core 2012 model. So far very happy.. I'm buying a 2nd monitor though and plan to buy a Thunderbolt RAID in the future.
I would like to edit video using a dual monitor setup and use the Thunderbolt RAID to store media.
Will this be a problem with the Intel 4000 HD integrated graphics? It has handled 1080p great so far...but will powering a monitor slow things down? I can live with editing off my firewire 800 drives and using the HDMI and thunderbolt as mini display port for now. But eventually i'd like the option to daisy chain a monitor and an external thunderbolt RAID.
Anyone running a similar setup now? If it won't work I'll need to return this mac mini with the next 7 day window and get a Macbook Pro which i know can do this.
Thanks so much..
