What is the maximum hard drive height for installing two hard drives in the 2011 Mac Mini

In a few months I'll be buying a Mac Mini. I want to upgrade the stock hard drive with a Seagate Momentus XT Solid state Hybrid Drive(720 RPM), which is 9.5 mm tall.
I would like to add a second hard drive, a Seagate Constellation(7200 RPM), which has a "15mm z-height".
I want to use those hard drives so I can have a speedy Mac Mini, but also have a great amount of storage(1.75 terabytes). My largest priority is storage space, but I also would like to use 7200 RPM hard drives as speed is also a priority.
I would like to know if those two hard drives would both fit in the 2011 Mac Mini.
And also, what does "Z-height" mean in regards to hard drives?

9.5mm is the standard 2.5" drive height. This thread says one 15mm drive may fit, but recommends against a Seagate Constellation drive, due to the amount of power it draws.
One option would be to add an external mini-stack, then storage space becomes a secondary concern. If you want speed, install an SSD for the operating system then put everything else on secondary storage.

What's the maximum number of Apple TVs that can be displayed in the AirPlay list?

We have 50 conference rooms all on the same network and are considering equiping each one with an Apple TV for AirPlay Mirroring our iPad 2s to the rooms projector, or TV. What is the maximum number of Apple TVs that can be displayed in the AirPlay menu to select the correct Apple TV for the conference room being used?

From what you're saying it sounds as though you wouldn't want to Airplay to all AppleTVs at once, just identify them when that specific room in use?
This is one of those uncharted territories wheer most domestic users will not require such a set up - Apple provide no official info about this, but they'd be your best source to ask.

How can I set the maximum number of restarts for my PDF files?

I want sent my PDF to a friend,but I just allow him see it only twice.
How can I set the maximum number of restarts for my PDF files?
My software edition is Acrobat X

In the old days when PDFs were only opened on desktops and only in Acrobat or Reader, scripting could fake security features and people were generally convinced. As there are so many ways to open a PDF without scripts ever being run (from mobile devices to in-browser display, or simply opening the file in Illustrator), none of that works anymore.

I'm confident that if you have spoken with our Fraud Team directly, that there are the proper wheels in motion to resolve all of the concerns that occured as a result of the fraudulant order on your account. It may take up to 2 bill cycles for all the adjustments to be applied and the changes made to your account to bring the dates and eligibility back to normal, so you should definitely be nearing the end of your wait. Based on your description, it may have been a while since you spoke with them directly instead of the customer service team, so I encourage you to give them a call at your earliest convenience to put your worries at ease. If you need to make arrangements for the charges that appear on your account, our Financial Services Team at 866-266-1445 will also be able to help possibly place a hold on the account regarding the disputed charges so there's no accidental inturruption in your service due to this unfortunate situation.

Is the maximum number of users for Airport Extreme per device, i.e. 2 AEBS = 100 users, one AEBS extending the other on the same wireless network?

Is the maximum number of users for Airport Extreme per device, i.e. 2 AEBS = 100 users, one AEBS extending the other on the same wireless network?

50 users per device, assuming that the "main" router is setup to deliver an adequate number of network IP addresses for all devices.
2 AEBS = 100 users, but that is really more of a theoretical max.
If you really need 100 connections, it would be much better to use 3 AEBS to spread things out.

I bought the Tiger woods 12 game for my ipad and also paid the 19.99 for the $2M. It has crashed my ipad a few times and when it restarted last time, it had no history of my progress or the $2M. How do I get my history back or my money back for the game and the in-game expenses?

The only one that can issue a PUK code is a carrier, which you've already made clear you don't have.
If itunes does not recognise your ipad that may be another issue. What version OS is on your computer and what steps did you follow to uninstall itunes and then reiinstall itunes on your computer?
And, do you at least see the sidebar on the left hand side of itunes?

My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?

Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.
