HI Ramy, If your asking if you can open the mac mini yourself then yes it should open very easily
However removing and replacing the drive is not an easy task I’ve never myself been able to do it successfully but that was partly due to not knowing the correct procedure to remove things in the mini case.

Try formatting the first item in that list. Make sure that you format it as MacOS Extended (Journaled). If that doesn't appear to work, you may need to use the Partition tab instead. In the Partition tab, choose that you wish to create one partition, MacOS Extended (Journaled) and that should get rid of the NTFS stuff. Later...

I took the unit and came to my studio, press, command option r, and I got the place to reinstall my original OSX, I choose disk utility, but, I can not find the SSD here. I found only the disk 0, it's an apple Image with 1.19 GB. I think this is not the SSD of cores, so, what can I do now? of cores it was formatted to NTFS because it had windows on it, but will it make difference? i nee dto format it to ma c os, to use itand what is the DIsk 0, apple image?need your advice -- Ramy MoustafaSaber Music instructor @: Faculty ofmusical education Music arranger and Sound engineer @: Harmony Recording Studio https://www.facebook.com/HarmonyRecordingStudio.eg -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
