David Hodson's answer is half-correct. It *is* just a standard HDD swap, however: 1) A guide to installing Leopard or Snow Leopard won't help because the 2011 Mac Mini won't run any OS X older than Lion. You *could* use another computer to install Lion on the SSD before fitting it, or wait for and buy the USB-stick version of Lion. However 2) The good news is you should be able to just fit the SSD blank. I believe the Mini's 'Internet Recovery' will allow you to connect to Apple and download and install Lion directly. All you need is your WiFi key or Ethernet cable:). Yes, any SSD will work.

Android - Android Operating system and its peripherals discussions. Apple - Apple devices. Anyone tried Windows 10 on iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011)? (self.Windows10) submitted 3 years ago. I did it on a 2011 Mac Mini. Worked fine in Bootcamp mode. Note that you won't be able to install Windows in native EFI mode on this system. Before rushing into anything, you should make sure that your iMac, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, Mac Pro supports the latest version of Mac OS. Here is the list of Mac models that are compatible with macOS High Sierra.

I'm running an OCZ Vertex2 120 GB SSD. Just make sure you upgrade to the drive's latest firmware version after installation.

As for OS install, I put the old drive into an external enclosure and booted from its Recovery partition. From there, I did a fresh install of Lion on the internally installed SSD. Prism for mac free. But I should have researched better.

Holding COMMAND+R brings up Internet Recovery, which will install Lion, pulling it from Apple's servers, on even hardrive without any data on it. If all you're doing is replacing the hard drive that's already there, then you're just performing a basic hard drive swap. Make sure you've got the right size (a standard 2.5' 9.5mm laptop drive), and you're good to go after installing the OS. I personally prefer to just use a Time Machine backup to restore to the new drive. Update I have become aware that the OS install is quite a bit different for Lion than for Leopard and Snow Leopard, thanks to the other people providing answers. I would trust someone more fluent in Lion than myself for OS install tips, but my answer about the physical hard drive is still correct.

Check, everyone! Pretty slick, isn't it? Those are ThunderBolt speeds! And some of the better ones at that! I just got my Mac mini yesterday, and today, I faithfully put 8GB of RAM into it.

This is off-topic, but boy does the extra 4GB make a difference when you're dealing with the OS paging to the 5400rpm stock drive. At any rate, regarding the aforementioned article, the trick as to how to get the almost 1GB/s for both read and write speeds is to get two (2) SATA III (6Gbps) solid state drives. Doesn't have to be OWC's. It can be a couple of OCZ's or a set of Intel 510 drives. Incidentally, if anyone has any questions about OS X 10.7 Lion, I think I'll be able to help.
