I have a late 2014 27” iMac i5 with the HDD swapped for a 2TB crucial SSD. Now that the M2 Pro Mac Mini is out, I am debating finally upgrading being that there is no 27” iMac coming anytime soon.
Having said all that, the storage prices on the Mac Mini are awful. $1200 to go to a 4TB SSD is a lot of money and nearly the cost of the base Mac Mini M2 Pro.
In my current setup, 1TB of my 1.6TB of use is for iMovie video files (yes, I am not a pro and do not use Final Cut or Adobe Premier). My videos are mostly of family so those are very important which could make the extra internal cost worth it.
Thoughts? Would you go for the 4TB of internal storage or 1 or 2 TB internal and some kind of external SSD solution?
