Heat/noise issues using Logic Pro on Mac mini M4

Has anyone using Apple Logic with the Mini M4 Pro experienced excessive noise issues? Or excessive heat? Or any other concerns with Logic and a M4 Mac mini?


Or is everything great?


I had purchased a M4 Mac Mini 512 24GB and after a couple of weeks it failed to connect with any speeds past 10mps, either wired or wireless, so I returned it to Costco. They have a 3 month no questions asked return policy vs the chintzy 10 days Apple itself offers.


I liked the mini until it died, but I'm considering getting the Mac Mini Pro this time. Mainly for future proofing, as the unit worked fine with my RME UCX II and Logic.


As far as temps go, I know the pro runs much hotter than the non pro unit. My house doesn't have AC, so I worry about how the mini will preform when ambient temps are high in the room. It's fairly cool in most of the USA now, but is anyone from the southern hemisphere or tropics out there to report on how it's working in the heat?


Noise issues are self explanatory, but obviously very important for live audio recording, which I do.


Any other comments on Logic and mac mini M4s, pro or not, would be appreciated!
