No, it is nothing at all like RAID 1. Nothing. At all. Fusion creates a single core storage volume using up the combined space of the HDD and the SSD. Ther is no mirroring involved. Frequently accessed files are managed by CoreStorage and moved to the SSD portion of the fusion drive without the knowledge or intervention of the OS or the applications. Most used files are simply on a faster medium. Fusion worked very well, but I am sure Intel's new version, being restricted to the newest OS, newest chips, and therefore newest machines, will perform better. Nothing beats a 500GB or larger SSD boot drive though, and Apple has moved on from spinning hard drives. Even the bottom of the line 2015 Mac mini has speed benchmarks in excess of 500MB/s read/write. -- ...but the senator, while insisting he was not intoxicated, could not explain his nudity.
