Either one or both:

Mac mini Late 2014 Hard Drive Replacement

Mac mini Late 2014 SSD Replacement

Of course the 2.5” is going to be much cheaper.

The blade you have shown will not work well in a Mac. Get one made to run in Macs,

either from OWC or Transcend. See @danj answer on the drive you pictured here: How can install a Samsung 970 EVO into a MacBook Pro 2012?

Do you know how much storage space you need? Can you tell me what you have now and what purpose are you going for with this upgrade?
