There aren't any heat issues in the Mac Mini server, which has two hard drives in it put in by Apple. So, I would guess"no".
The kit is pretty sweet.
The logic board removal thingy, which looks like hanger wire bent into the proper shape and wrapped with blue tape, is iFixit's own take on the original.
They still want $20 for it: http://www.ifixit.com/Tools/Logic-Board-Removal-Tool-Mac-Mini-922-9588/IF145-159
Going through the teardown, I appreciated how Apple attached the logic board to the aluminum shell without screws using the slide in mechanism activated with this tool.
Even as a certified technician, I'd get this kit for private us if I had one of these Minis.
