Default Re: SSDs

They are if they are a PCIe SSD. I'd not rely on that with a SATA SSD, even with disk cache. Nut it depends on what you are doing. Everything but audio/session files should be able to go on a single SATA boot SSD. If your Mac Mini supports two SATA drives I'd consider installing two drives (likely Samsung 860 Evo).

If your Mac Mini supports PCIe/NVMe drives I'd be buying the largest one I could afford that is known to work in that Mac Mini (be careful, typical Apple behavior: standard M.2 PCIe/NVMe drives are not likely to work).

What *exact* make/model Mac Mini do you have? I'm not going to try to guess that from the description in your signature. Model number and EMC code please... should be hiding in plain sight on the product.
