Why, is it really that much different? Yes, I know what fusion drive is, but as someone that has one but is yet to use SSD, is it just speed that is the factor?
I just bought the 27" retina iMac and its got Fusion drive and I find it very fast.
BUT I am a also not perhaps doing some of the uses some do that require as much as can be.
Am about to install one in my 2011 macbook pro and people have said that should take me from bogged down to good enough i wont likely even have to upgrade that ram...or so i was told.
So curious. i don't want to change the subject of the thread but with regards to this Mac Mini, WHAT exactly is the SSD drive going to give over the Fusion?
It just seems like a hell of a lot of money, $800 + for the top end flash drive so I am really curious to know what the flash drive would do for it, the mac mini, that would make it worth paying an extra $600 for flash?
TIA
Fusion will break at some point because of the spinner drive which will have to be replaced.
SSD should last for the life of the machine and probably 25 years more.
There is no way the Mini is worth putting an extra $600 in and it is way over priced for what you get anyways.
Best thing to do IMHO is SSD on inside and external HD.
