There is no need to shut-down and start-up that many times everyday. It is best to just let the displays sleep and leave the Mac Mini running.


FWIW my Mac Mini’s are setup to “Prevent computer sleep” and Display sleep is set to 10 minutes. They only get restarted for updates that require it and rarely ever get shut-down.
