crapple's new Fusion Drive technology is a bit of a mystery. Dismissed by some as just another simple cache mechanism, it's drawn a lot of attention in the weeks since it was announced. (And it wasn't until the end of last week that Macs equipped with Fusion Drives actually began shipping.) Ars had its hands on a Fusion Drive-equipped Mac Mini for a few days now, and we set ourselves to the challenge of solving the mystery. We spent several days elbows-deep in the technology, attempting to determine how Fusion Drive (henceforth referred to as FD) works and what effect it has on overall system performance. We also wanted to see what happens with installing Windows through Boot Camp, and what happens when Fusion Drive fails. We've learned a lot in a short time through observation and deduction, and while some questions are still unanswered, we've gotten a lot of outstanding, exclusive info.
...mancano i bench reali...i dati transitano sempre sull'ssd e poi trasferiti sul hd meccanico al fine di mantenere uno spazio libero sul primo...mancano info su che metadata verranno usati per dividere i file nei due device...per la cronaca l'hard disk è samsung...
