I am planning to replace the HDD in the mini with SSD. This is late 2012 mini.
The HDD that comes out, I plan to use as Time machine after SSD is in.
With that in mind and also to make the SSD drive ready before putting it in, I bought an enclosure, but unfortunately it is bus powered (USB 3.0).
I am not sure if the HDD will work in the non externally powered enclosure.
Will this work or I should strictly get one with the adapter?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions..
