Do I need this if i already have a fusion drive installed in my mac mini late 2014 (i.e to install an m.2 ssd like the crucial p2?)

If you have a fusion drive already it will have this as a fusion drive part M.2 part HDD /SSD underneath this which you need to disassemble the whole Mac to access the bottom drive , A 1.12TB showing is a 128GB M.2 and a1TB drive . Easy to find out just open the back off and you should see it on top at the back

Hello, i need this converter to upgrade my mac mini 2014 and i have bought a crucial ssd 1tb mx500 m.2 type 2280. it will work or need something else?

No expert, but I think the SSD you have bought has a hard drive form factor, and may be suitable as a direct replacement for the internal spinning disk drive provided as part of the 2014 mac mini. The Simtech adaptor is suitable for the 'blade' type of SSD. The one I bought and installed was the Crucial P2 CT1000P2SSD8 1 TB Internal SSD, Up to 2400 MB/s (3D NAND, NVMe, PCIe, M.2). This one fits the Simtech adaptor and can be installed by removing the bottom cover of the Mac Mini. For that you need a Torx screwdriver like this one or similar -E.Durable Torx Security T6 Screwdriver TR6 for Mac Mini (2014-2018 Models) HDD/SSD MacBook Pro. If you need to access the spinning disk hard drive you need to go deeper into the structure and there are risks I believe to the inexperienced technician. I would suggest you look at the forums on the Macrumors website where you can find very detailed advice. The blade type of SSD gives amazing results. Maybe you should consider returning yours and replacing it with the blade version. This is my opinion and experience, but get a second opinion or read the Macrumors forums first.

Very easy to fit

I bought an SSD to upgrade a late 2014 mac mini without checking properly how to fit it. When I realised I would have to take it completely apart, I bought this adapter and an NVmE SSD. I only then had to remove the base and swing the WiFi aerial to one side to fit everything, a much simpler operation which took less than 30 minutes. Highly recommended.

Great upgrade

Fitted into our old Mac Mini 2014 and has breathed new life into it when paired with a crucial NvME drive. Make sure you get some security torx drivers to get into the Mini tho’

Easy to fit and it 'just works'

Running Big Sur on my late 2014 8GB Mac Mini was almost impossible - it was constantly swapping to disk and taking 10-20sec to open applications. So I used this board to fit a fast SSD (Crucial P2 CT1000P2SSD8 1 TB Internal SSD) and now the system runs like a train. Wasn't hard to fit, but you do need to get hold of a tiny ('T6') size Torx security bit - the type with a hole in the middle - in order to get the lid off the case. Further disassembly is thankfully not necessary.

Pleasantly surprised

So I was brought to this product after following a link on a YouTube video on the premise that it would allow me to install a NVME drive into my 2014 Mac Mini. Looking at the reviews, I was a little nervous as it seems some people have had issues with the devices, but on a personal note it couldn't have been more simple. Opened up my mac, removed the sticky pad backing, plugged it into the relevant slot and secured the board against the HDD cover, crossed my fingers and... away we went. I am typing this review on my mac that is now booting off an NVME drive :) Would absolutely recommend

Funciona perfectamente. En el paquete viene: El adaptador, un destornillador y 2 tornillos (iguales). La única pega que se puede poner es que el tornillo es corto y pequeño para sujetar el adaptador al Mac Mini de finales del 2014. Lo he utilizado para instalar en un Mac Mini de finales de 2014 un "Sabrent 512GB Rocket NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD Interno Unidad de Estado sólido de Alto Rendimiento (SB-ROCKET-512)". Para lo que he necesitado utilizar también "WIHA 27630 - Destornillador con varilla intercambiable SYSTEM 6 284 SYSTEM 6 T6H / T8H Ref. 284TR51".
