Replacement For Mac Os X Server

Mac os x server 1.2

My parents have a intel Mac Mini with OS X 10.6.8 (last possible upgrade). The Disk Utility says that there are minor error and the vlume should be repaired using install DVD. The SL install DVD nor Leopard upgrade DVD won't read for some reason? Only the original Tiger 10.4. DVD works but when I run the Disk Repair it says everything is OK. Then when I run it again in OSX 10.6.8. its broken again?


Is there any help from running the latest OS X 10.6.8 update combo or some other way to repair the OS X.


OS X Server is a server operating system designed specifically to be installed and used on Apple-based server machines. It is an Apple proprietary server OS. Apple has released several versions of the OS X server, including Cheetah Server (version 10.0), Puma Server (version 10.1) and Mavericks Server (version 10.9, released Oct 2013).

I have a SL install DVD also at home, but is 550km away so cannot go and grab it just like that! 😉

With Thursday's Mac mini refresh, the addition of new processors and a lower cost of entry seemingly comes at a price, as Apple no longer offers storage expansion options beyond 1TB and has axed the server model altogether.

Apple may have been referring to a Mac mini hardware refresh when it sent out invitations to today's special event, which read 'It's been way too long,' but with the upgraded internals comes the deprecation of a top-end server model with 2TB of HDD storage. The move, however, results in cost savings and perhaps greater flexibility for the end user.

While it may be added onto Apple's roster at a later date, the Mac mini with OS X Server option is currently not available to purchase through the Online Apple Store. The next version of OS X Server was recently seeded to developers for testing, but has yet to make it to the Mac App Store.

In any case, the latest Mac mini revision does not come in a configuration supporting 2TB of storage, an option previously available to the $999 Mac mini server. Instead, the top-of-the-line mini ships with a 1TB Fusion Drive standard, which can be swapped out with a 256GB SSD at no extra cost. The only other configurations available are a 512GB and 1TB SSDs, which command a $300 and $800 premium, respectively.

Apple did offer the current standard storage configurations as options on the outgoing model — and current low- and mid-tier models — with the 1TB Fusion Drive costing $250 extra and the 256GB SSD coming in at $300 over cost.

The change, first spotted by Czech blog LSA, could be a disappointment for those looking for a high-capacity standalone, but the decision is a clear sign as to where Apple plans to position the Mac mini in its desktop lineup.

With current data demands, 2TB of storage is not impressive when it comes to content or workstation servers, but is likely enough for everyday use. Lowering the price and upping standard storage puts the mini in range of regular consumers, while more powerful configurations fills the niche for customers looking for a decent standalone replacement.

Further, the new Mac mini's dual Thunderbolt 2 connections, four USB 3.0 ports, Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Gigabit ethernet are more than adequate to attach and serve fast external storage if a user so chooses. Couple that with low-priced OS X Server software and the configurations on offer start to look like a value. In some ways, Apple's new Mac mini is the most cost-effective and flexible to date.
