Hi,
I am thinking of making use of the Mac Mini 2010 and replace the HDD with Solid State ... I am looking for a low budget service option
Where can I get the SDD replaced in NYC.
Thanks in advance

I'd look at independant computer repair shops. Call around and I'm sure you'll find one that'll be able to help you out.

Saisunil, do you have an external HDD?  If you have a timemachine backup from it, it should not be very difficult.  It can save you some bucks.  I do not think that the places where they do these swaps do data migration....so, they might charge you to simply swap HDDs and unless you got a decent deal on a SSD HDD, you might have to expect to pay them for what they offer....and on top, pay for labor and then have data migration happen.  I would look into swapping the HDD on my own.  But in NYC....Tekserve is the place.  Call them, they are off 24th street.

Why not do it yourself?  I did my '09 and it was super easy.
