Hi all,

My 2009 Mac Mini is about to kick the bucket. It hangs for several minutes (20+) even when booted in Safe Mode. I think the issue is drive related (Disk Utility seems to think it's fine though) and I was going to start with a fresh install in a brand new SSD. Was thinking of using OWC's Data Doubler so I can put a second hard drive in (the DVD-ROM has been dead for about five years now) and wanted to know if the Data Doubler for the 2010 Mac Mini will work in the 2009 model. On Amazon Canada, the price difference between the two models is quite significant ($27 vs $60).

Has anyone installed the 2010 Mini Data Doubler in a 2009? Will it fit?

Thanks!
