Mac mini (Late 2012) and iMac (Late 2012): About Fusion Drive

Apple’s Support Page just posted additional details about the Mac mini (Late 2012) and iMac (Late 2012) Fusion Drive announced at Yesterday’s Apple Event.

As Apple says, “Presented as a single volume on your Mac, Fusion Drive automatically and dynamically moves frequently used files to Flash storage for quicker access, while infrequently used items move to the hard disk.”

There are some interesting tidbits such as you can only have one partition on the hard disk, third party utilities “may or may not” work (not unexpected) and some details about using Time Machine backups.
