Mac mini has received its first redesign in nearly 15-years—and there are so many secrets to behold within its 5x5x2 impact-extruded aluminum chassis.

Apple has released the new M4 Mac mini and M4 Pro Mac mini to much excitement. Bringing along with it the first redesign since 2010, there are a lot of things to discover. Take a look with us at the inside. How the cooling assembly and blower intake fan works, how the copper heat pipe exhaust shroud carries heat away from the SoC, how the speaker acts as an intake manifold to cool the VRMs and PSU, and what component-level stuff can be found on the logic board. It's a pretty remarkable piece of engineering, so let's get going!
