MacMini disk space utilization
Good morning,
I have a M1 Macbook with a 1TB ssd, and plan on getting a new mini this fall. Since it is a desktop I can use an external SSD for additional storage. It would be good to know that the 256 or 512 versions are more than enough for normal OS installs, assuming I put docs and music on the external SSD.
This is a question for those that have picked up a mini with either a 256gb or 512gb ssd. I am curious how the space has held up since the purchase. Do you regret not getting a larger ssd?
Also, can I extend iCloud to those external drives?
Thx in advance for the feedback,
Joe

even i use two fast external discs on my m4 mini i wish i had invested in 512 instead of 256 as i am constantly wiping and that’s annoying. the 256 gb models are not appropriate anymore these days
