Apple fans who want to experience the company's Mac mini M1 can now rent the device as a server at MacStadium. The ability to host M1 Mac mini servers in the cloud will likely be of interest to developers and anyone looking to explore new web hosting opportunities. MacStadium has a lot of experience offering Mac server hardware, but this is the first time it has been able to offer customers the option to rent the new M1-equipped Mac mini. The company is also known for its competitive pricing and can offer monthly plans starting at €109 for using a Mac mini M1 with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. For other configurations offered by MacStadium, customers can choose from three data center locations: Las Vegas and Atlanta in the US and Dublin, Ireland. They can also choose to purchase external USB and network storage and get additional protection by signing up for the Cisco Firewall security solution.

Apple's decision to switch to its own processors, designed specifically for Mac products, caused a stir last year. This was followed by other titles once performance benchmarks began to be revealed. While there were some compatibility issues following Apple's discontinuation of Intel-made chips, these were largely allayed with the assurance that the Rosetta 2 emulator should handle most issues. While other cloud providers are starting to offer M1 Mac mini servers soon, if they haven't already, MacStadium has a good track record in this area. In addition to offering a customized private cloud environment, the company also has a 24/7 support team ready to help you with any issues.
