The Apple Mac mini "Core 2 Duo" 2.53 Server (Late 2009) features a 2.53 GHz Intel "Core 2 Duo" (P8700) processor, a 3 MB on-chip level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz frontside bus, 4 GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-8500) memory, dual 500 GB Serial ATA hard drives, and a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 256 MB of memory shared with the system.

Connectivity includes Mini-DVI and Mini DisplayPort, a Firewire "800" port, five USB 2.0 ports, combined "optical digital audio input/audio line in" and combined "optical digital audio output/headphone" minijacks, a 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port, and built-in AirPort Extreme (802.11a/b/g/n) and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR.

Late 2009 Mac mini models have the internal components enclosed in a tiny and elegant 2.9 lb, 6.5 inch square, two inch tall case with a built-in speaker and an external power supply. All Mac mini systems ship without a display, keyboard, or mouse, but numerous Apple and third-party options are available.

Please note that this model is identical to the Mac mini "Core 2 Duo" 2.53 (Late 2009) model except the "Server" version is equipped with dual 500 GB hard drives and no optical drive and uses a revised case design without an optical drive slot. It shipped with an unlimited user version of MacOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server rather than the standard MacOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard as well.
