Desktops have the advantage over laptops that the spare parts and extensions tend to be standardized, resulting in lower prices and greater availability. For example, the form factor of the motherboard is standardized, like the ATX form factor. Desktops have several standardized expansion slots, like PCI or PCI express, while laptops only tend to have one mini PCI slot and one PC card. This means that a desktop can be customized and upgraded to a greater extent than laptops. Procedures for dis-assembly of desktops tend to be simple and standardized to a a great extent too
This tends not to be the case for laptops, though adding or replacing some parts, like the optical drive, rechargeable battery, hard disk, and adding an extra memory module is often quite simple
Another advantage of desktops is, that power consumption is not as critical in a desk top because a desktop is not powered by a rechargeable battery and there is more space to remove the heat.

and I'm wondering if I can use it on my HP mini without issues (after downloading and installing the right drivers)

It should work fine.
