New Apple support article details some of the Fusion Drive’s limitations

Apple posted a new knowledge base article today containing more information about the new Fusion Drive option available in yesterday’s iMac and Mac mini updates. The post includes some of the limitations of the Fusion Drive, such as the inability to add more than one additional partition to the hard disk portion, and the fact that Boot Camp Assistant does not support 3 TB configurations. Other issues include some potential problems using Time Machine to restore to a Fusion Drive. This information should be incredibly useful to those considering the Fusion Drive option in their next Mac.
