Hi, I'm planning to buy new Mac Mini 2020 for daily computer use + virtualization testing.
And I plan to upgrade the RAM to 16GB. Speed is 2666MHz according to Apple. I never own Mac before, last time I know, to upgrade Mac you have to buy Mac-certified RAM (some logo show Mac-certified) So, can I just buy a normal non-ECC 2666MHz RAM ? |

Virtualization testing on Mac? Whatever for?
Aside from that if you want to do the upgrade yourself, you'll need security torq tool to access the RAM slots. |
