You would be buying at a great time as well since 2010 ram is less than half the price when I purchased mine. Unfortunately, two 32GB memory modules are still fairly rare, and quite expensive. It should be a quick and easy replacement. I bought my ram from OWC but, as a previous post said, you can order from those other vendors as well. The base Mac mini comes with two 4GB memory modules for a total of 8GB of RAM. MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac mini 2010 - 2020 This service will not void the Apple warranty This service can. Only a geek setting up a Mini server farm would worry about that, LOL. A matched pair of ram should run slightly better than 1+4 or 2+4 but you probably would never notice the difference in real world usage. Even with all that going on activity monitor reports I am usually using somewhere between 5-7 GB so I still have a little cushion but 4 GB would not be enough for me. My Mini gets a fair amount of use from as many as four users logged in at once and all running typical apps such as Safari, Mail, iPhoto and others, not to mention a bit of gaming thrown into the mix. After you install the memory, confirm that your Mac mini sees the new memory. Reconnect the power cord and any other cables you disconnected.
Rotate the cover clockwise to lock it in place. The standard Mini, whether 2010 or 2011, really doesn't have enough ram and the slow hdd hurts it even more. Replace the bottom cover using the alignment dots to place it in the unlocked position. I agree it is a great little machine! IMO it does need a bit more ram for most users.
