[QUOTE="BatSam, post: 1828503, member: 403204"] Hi mac gurus! I have a question and I was wondering if it is possible. I have 2019 27" 500gb SSD, 8GB ram, 5k iMac. I have 3tb personal data sitting in an external (exFAT) drive copied from my previous pc. Also, I have prepared 12tb Raid0 with Akitio Thunder3 Quad X drive ready to be used. It is empty sitting next to the iMac. My query is it possible to create a fusion drive using the above mentioned 2 drives, my raid0, and the iMac internal SSD? I'm trying to avoid dealing with different drives for my storage needs. I tried moving my Home Directory to an external drive before, but the iMac started mildly misbehaving so I reverted it. Smooth factory-like system integrity and easy to use fast/large storage is a priority of mine. My data is mostly videos and photos. Waiting for that day when 6tb SSD is cheap and mainstream... lol Best, [/QUOTE]
