Don't pay Apple for that 2TB, tho; I trust the iBoff 2TB SSDs @ $280 - if you research them, I think you'll see that they've reverse engineered the Apple NVME SSDs really nicely - no corners cut...

I don't NEED 32GB RAM - and I've went w/ the stock M4 Mini... that being said, I think I would benefit from the $1300 Pro version a lot. 24GB RAM, and way more CPU/GPU...
