Re: Installing memory in a Mini will void warranty
Always make sure that your mac mini is like how you bought it, original ram, original drives, dont return something partially open or with other ram (the case)
"
What kind of activities are excluded from my warranty coverage?
Apple’s One-Year Limited Warranty for Mac mini excludes coverage for damage resulting from a number of events, including accident, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications"
I bet his talking about unauthorized modifications trying to be sneaky?
Thats a load of *** the repair costs almost as much as a Brand new mac mini.
Id suggest you visit a AASP an authorized service place non - apple and see if they will fix it .
"661-3439 (Hard Drive, 40 GB, 2.5", 4200 rpm) $198.96"
Buy yourself a nice 80gb 7200 Laptop drive for that price.
and it seems strange how the combo drive also died at the same time..
Also consider "DIY" do it yourself program from apple and order the parts to fix it yourself.--
In retro spect, my hard drive died for my mini by overheating and returned it fine with ( other ram installed ) and it was fixed without problems.
Also, If i where you, id use your 90 days phone and call and ask if opening it to install ram will void it.
- I also remember it saying apple couldnt sell apple care in florida somewhere, problably no relation. hmm |
