Description

Rack ’em Up! Mac minis are great general-purpose computers, and make sweet servers for many applications. However, integrating them into a rack poses some challenges. How do you securely mount the minis? How do you keep them cool? How do you turn them on without pulling them out of the rack? How do you plug in a thumb drive for a quick update? Sonnet’s RackMac mini solves all these challenges and more! Constructed of rugged steel, the RackMac mini is a fully-assembled rackmount solution that supports one or two Mac mini computers installed side-by-side into 1U of rack space, placing the computers behind a neat front panel. The enclosure’s design—updated to properly support 6-core Mac mini models—manages airflow through the computers to keep them as cool as ambient air in the rack as on a desk, enabling you to stack them close and stack them high for a Mac mini server farm. The RackMac mini provides front panel access to each Mac mini’s power switch and one of its USB-A ports, enabling you to switch each computer on and off, and connect a keyboard, mouse, USB drive, or other USB device. Do you need to take your mini on the road? The RackMac mini is a perfect travel solution. Its 8.25-inch mounting depth, plus firm rubber cushions that securely hold your computers in place during transport, make RackMac mini ideal for use in molded cases such as those from Gator Cases. The RackMac mini’s design also allows normal WiFi and Bluetooth wireless operation in most configurations (depending on rack type and position in rack), so you can use iOS device control apps. RackMac mini secures your Mac minis without trapping them in recirculating hot rack air. A strategically designed chamber directs cool air in a one-way path through front panel openings—now twice the air space to provide proper thermal support for the latest Mac mini—to the computers’ air intakes, and then out the back.

Yes, it's worth the cost difference.
The much less expensive version made by brand X isn't worth the money. Save yours and just buy the proper mount the first time. I tried to cheap out and bought the less expensive version. I wound up buying the Sonnet because the cheap one was such a disappointment.

Over-priced for how simple it is, but it does it's one job extremely well
If you want to put a Mac mini in a rack, this will get the job done. However, the price tag is a bit ridiculous for what is essentially some steel, foam padding, 2 USB extension cables, and two sticks that push a button. I think $150 or less would be a better price point. And if you're only using this for a single Mac mini, it's even more ridiculously overpriced. But unless you've got the materials and tools to build your own, you're kinda out of luck paying an "Apple tax" to someone. This case definitely secures the Mac minis down, but I've noticed that the case does get really tight on the Macs. This also makes it incredibly difficult to service the Mac minis once racked. If you need to replace or pull a single Mac mini out and you have two of them installed, you need to take both offline. Here's to hoping Apple comes to their senses and brings back the Xserve... though I'm not holding my breath. ... show more

Perfect Rackmount for MacMinis
Review Image by Andrew M. Johnston
This 1U rack mount is amazing and secures my MacMinis perfectly for my portable AV Rig. It furthers my belief that if the need exists, you can find it on Amazon, and if you can’t find it here, you probably don’t need it.

Quality and Well Designed
Installed a 2020 Mac mini M1 and a 2018 Mac mini Intel. Both fit perfectly.

The Screws strip
I bought this rack because this is the only product out there that offers this kind of solution to rack mounting a Mac mini. It's very handy to have, but unfortunately the majority of the screws immediately broke off when tightening them down. I wasn't even applying much pressure...

ALMOST A GOOD PRODUCT !!
Overall, the rackmount is a great idea, but the power button on the front is a kluge from about 1970. The button pushes a rud, which in turn is supposed to push a piece of plastic, to put the power button on the mac mini. Supposedly this product was updated for the 2018 macminis, but the same situation still exists. Additionally there is a screw which holds the plastic piece to the push rod. Ship it 2 or 3 times and you'll find is has come loose and disappeared somewhere in your rack. I own 8 of them only because there isn't another rack mount for them. IF you decide to buy this product, make sure you also buy some LOCKTITE and use on every screw. Sonnet-- Come on, can't you come up with a better mechanism? ... show more

It did work perfectly for me. My Mac Mini now lives inside my home studio rack with other equipments helping to clear my desk from cables.
