UGreen SSD Enclosure

This enclosure is the simple workaround I used to avoid Apple’s storage upgrade prices. Pair it with a 1TB NVMe, format it to APFS, and you can run apps from the external drive while keeping your internal storage free. In my testing, it came in clutch and helped keep everything running smoothly.

Pros

+Lets you add fast external storage without opening the Mac Mini
+Easy to set up with an NVMe drive
+Helps keep internal SSD free for smoother performance

Cons

-It’s an extra item to manage on your desk unless you mount it neatly
-Performance depends on the enclosure/drive and the port you use
