Can this Mac mini use a 2017 iMac blade ssd in the fusion drive?

Will a blade ssd from a 2017 iMac work inside a 2014 Mac mini with the ssd flex cable? I wanted to add a fusion drive to my Mac mini to make it run faster, and since I have the iMac ssd laying around I was wondering if I could use it? The Mac mini ssd flex cable appears to the same pinout (12 16) as the iMac ssd I have.

OK, so its the drive from a Fusion Drive set you salvaged. So you could use it. creating a new Fusion Drive set with your HDD.

Frankly, If you are trying to get real performance I would jump to a 512GB/1TB 2 lane PCIe/NVMe SSD as being a better direction. Here setting it up as your boot drive and hosting your apps.

  • 512 SSD - $190
  • 1TB SSD - $324

Thank you for your help! I just wanted a slightly improved boot and app opening, and wanted to use the spared ssd I had.
