Someone Destroyed EVERY PORT on this Mac Mini...

In this video, I go over the process of repairing an M2 Mac Mini that has had every single one of its ports intentionally damaged. I have no idea why such a thing would have been done to this machine, but it is not the first time I have seen one damaged in this way (on eBay, at least). To accomplish this repair, I utilized a set of ports from an A12Z-based DTK Mac Mini, which are identical to those used on the M2 (and M1) Mac Mini. 0:00 Intro 2:52 Close look at damage 4:42 Sourcing a donor set of ports 5:17 Desoldering donor ports 9:12 Desoldering damaged ports 10:00 Cleaning solder from board 13:45 Installing donor ports 18:44 Initial testing 21:10 Final assembly and conclusion #applesilicon #macmini #repair
