Late 2014 Mac Mini Teardown Reveals Soldered RAM

iFixit has published a teardown of the new 2014 Mac mini finding soldered RAM and a more difficult to open casing.
Highlights:
● The backside of the Mini remains almost identical to the previous iteration. The only change is the omission of a FireWire port in favor of an extra Thunderbolt 2 port.
● The Mac Mini Late 2014 retains the model number identifier of A1347, but is distinguished by the EMC number 2840.
● There's a solid door where there was once handy access to the RAM and fan. A rare T6 Torx Security screwdriver is required to open it.
● The computer features a quieter Advanced Hydraulic Bearing fan
● The RAM is soldered to the logic board.
