Hey guys,
I'am about to buy a new imac. To save money i was thinking togo for the fusion drive. But, i read a few posts talking about fusion drive and audio issues. These posts are pretty old. So, i was wondering if the problems have been solved? Any experience to share?
I use a soundcraft signature 12 MTK. Currently working perfectly on my MBP 2011.
Thanks for your return.
Ben
Apple fusion drive issues, solved?
Re: Apple fusion drive issues, solved?
Hi,
I don't know about those posts, but having an i7 iMac (Sierra) with Fusion Drive I can report that I never ran into any errors at all.
Since I am not using a 12 MTK I can't say anything about that specific combination.
Hope that helps.

Do yourself a favour and get an SSD. 1TB is minimum as far as I'm concerned. The difference for music production is night and day and the drive is a stupid thing to try to save money on. The fusion just don't cut it in comparison. I've used both.AudioCycles wrote:Hey guys,

Agreed, it's the single easiest thing you can do to make your computer feel a LOT faster. Worth saving up for until you can do it right.
