It shouldn't need any installing at all. Plug and play. The Logitech software only need it if you need to go into the settings in the logitech software.

Thanks, there are tools on Windows that report HD temperature
Interesting idea if the fan can be controlled by external software. Not sure what's possible across TB4
I found smartmontools. This tells me the SSD temperature, 41C, internal is 32C. Seems the cooling is not what it might be on the caddy then.

Anyone got a BTO from KRCS? Wondering what their usual lead time is vs the same BTO from Apple directly. For the spec I have ordered, Apple have consistently said 2-3 weeks from order to delivery. The only update I have had from KRCS on delivery is saying 17th Dec which is basically 5 weeks from order date so I find that hard to believe. Hoping it should arrive in the net week or so.
I too swiped a model M when I was at university and neglected to give it back.

The speaker on the MMM4 is pretty good considering. I wouldn't listen to a film through it but I forgot to turn my Creative Soundbar on and listening to a YouTube video, just talking, is fine.
Wait….it has a speaker in it? Lol

I would like a TB5 enclosure but I think they are going to be a while in the making and expensive for anything that is solid and good.
You're not going to be enjoying Interstellar in dolby audio, but it has a speaker.
Well, this is frustrating, my OWC 1M2 has just arrived and my PC is in the process of being reset. It’s been 3 hours already, 6 to go. (All the discs being securely wiped) it’ll be tomorrow now before I can play with my new toy. Oh well.
I have to say, the OWC is a quality piece of kit. Heavy, feels as though it has been milled from a solid piece of aluminum. Suits the Mac Mini beautifully.

I have to ask - why are you doing a secure wipe?
Oh! That makes perfect sense. Sorry, it was a personal sense of curiosity - I was sat here thinking "A secure wipe is a tad extreme just to express that you don't like windows 11 anymore"
Heh. Cool. Seems like you can power a Mac Mini with a powerbank if you want to go mobile .

Apple’s Redesigned M4 Mac mini Can Turn Into A Portable Computer That You Can Travel Around With By Using A Powerbank, Just As Long As It Has An AC Outlet
The M4 Mac mini is so efficient and portable that it can hooked up to a powerbank with an AC outlet and be carried out with you

You can turn an iPad into a laptop screen with an app to accept signal through USB-C.
I can see a niche case (as influencers have pointed out) where in terms of luggage footprint it would make more sense for them to carry around a mini pro and a monitor for expos. Use cases like that I can see it being applicable.

I mean you can get a 1080p portable monitor for like £60 now so it works in a pinch if you don't have a MacBook. But then...I would just buy a MBA if I need to travel with a Mac.

Would be good for mobile signage or demos at trade shows where laptops don’t make sens
I probably would as well, but a few videos from various tech reviewers have inferred that going forward it's exactly what they'll do (I think for example, marques carries around an iMac)
