[QUOTE="bill272, post: 1929941, member: 404317"] Hi, I read this in a forum If the HDD dies, you still lose the fusion drive (which is a virtual volume that uses both drives) Depending on the type of failure, the bad drive may affect your system where it needs to be removed. Using an external drive may not help if the internal HDD has failed. Does that mean i should start using my external boot BEFORE the hdd dies? Thanks [/QUOTE]
