Not SSD's, not 1 TB fusion drives, not ordinary drives. Having a 2012 iMac with 3TB fusion drive I did have problems with the fusion drive. Apple had to replace it, and then I decided Fusion was stupid and replaced the SSD with a 1TB SSD and 'broke' the fusion Drive, so I have a 1TB boot drive and a 3TB data drive. -- Friction can be a real drag.
