However newer logic boards, chips and manufacturing techniques mean that these days an ordinary soldering iron is totally useless for this purpose and you need tools equivalent to those used originally to build the logic boards, as such it is not possible unless you are a major manufacturer and they have no interest in doing this. The latest generation Mac mini has soldered RAM, which means that people who purchase Mac minis are limited to 16 GB RAM and they won’t be able to upgrade it themselves. Any DIY attempt would merely destroy either the logic board or chips or both. I think soldering is the only way to put new ram in the machine, 2. They must upgrade when purchasing the machine from Apple with the priced at 300 for the base model and 200 for the mid and high-end models. Good point thanks The late 2014 Mac Mini is very slow. Im not sure what I can do to speed it up. Louis Rossmann has some interesting YouTube videos showing component soldering on MacBooks. 2012 and earlier or the newer 2018 model all have socketed memory and can be upgraded it is only the 2014 model that does not.
