How to install OS X (Yosemiti | El Capitan) on a mac mini SSD?
Greetings.
Installed SSD in mac mini. I wanted to install El Capitan, but it is not installed, various errors occur. I tried downloading from the AppStore, downloading and installing from under Mavericks, tried uploading the OS to a USB flash drive through the terminal and through a third-party program - it doesn’t load, it freezes at 13 or 12 minutes, then it gives an error at the last minute. The embedded Mavericks OS is installed perfectly into the system, but the new one is not installed. I tried twenty times, the day passed in empty attempts.
The list of errors that occurred in the process, all were somehow eliminated, but in vain:
- failure to check or restore the file system
- the framework cannot establish contact with the disk management routine
- failed to mount disk image
- failed to install
- and other types of long freezes during the installation process
Tried with four different flash drives: new, old, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, usb 2.0 & 3.0.
In the morning I read that Apple does not allow you to install the OS on third-party equipment, about trim. Tired. Has anyone experienced this and can give some good advice?

They write that there are problems specifically with EVO.
If there is an old disk left, maybe put the necessary system on it and copy it to a new one? Or restore via Time Machine.
