Mac mini 2014 2.6GHz Core i5, 16GB RAM, 250GB SSD, 500GB HD, Monterey

Was using this as a server, but I've since upgraded to a newer Mac mini. Listed as Fair since it's a 9-year old computer. The SSD is an NVME model installed via a non-OEM adapter. As you can see, the OS is installed and ready for use, but the non-OEM adapter can cause some issues with reinstalling the OS. Please be aware of this if you buy this system. It also has a 500GB HDD installed, for a total of around 750GB of storage between the HDD and the SSD. Running the latest version of Monterey at the time I reinstalled the OS.

The sale includes the 2014 Mac mini and a power cord. No other items are included.

What do you mean? "the non-OEM adapter can cause some issues with reinstalling the OS."

Sorry, the notification for your comment went to a spam folder.

When I attempted to use the Internet recovery to restore the OS after I wiped it, it kept erroring out with a generic error when trying to install the OS to the NVME drive. When I tried to restore using a USB stick, I also got an error there. I think you could restore the OS to the mechanical driver fine, or buy a 2.5" SSD and install the OS to the drive. Since I had another 2014 Mac mini, I just moved the NVME drive into it and was able to restore it fine. I then put the NVME drive back into the Mac mini, pointed to it as the boot drive, and it started fine. I hope that explains the issue.
