My Mac mini A1176 is overheating because of the hard drive
My Mac mini did an emergency shut down last night because it was running too hot.
Does an SSD produce less heat than a HDD, if not what can I do to stop it from overheating
Is this a good question?

I don't know much about computers but this might be because of dust or you need. New thermal paste

Ssd surely causes less heat

@ellusion - they do! But here we have a complication as this is a very old system I honestly don’t even know if any SSD’s where made with a SATA I interface. I think the first ones where SATA II and they were also on the small side as well, yet alone quite expensive at the time.
