That was supposed to say there are no USB-A ports on the new Mac mini. That's what happens when you dictate, and don't proof before sending. ☺️

There are no USB ports on the new Mac mini model. You can connect any monitor that uses HDMI, or thunderbolt/USB-C. External drives that are fat 32 should have no problem connecting to a Mac mini.

He already has monitors and external drives. I notice there are 2 USBC ports but are there any USB A ones? Am I correct that his other drives would need to be Fat32 format? so he could retrieve the files on them? I assume any monitor will connect to the Mini is this correct? Thanks for any advice.
