I have a Mac Mini with a fusion drive. As I understand it, the Siri with these drives is that those apps or programs that are used the most get that solid-state part of the drive. In fact, before my Mac Mini had a problem and had to go back, it worked fine. No choppy Alex with Yosemite. Now, since they "fixed" it, I hear the drive a lot more, and choppy Alex happened. They said the drive had initially been missed configured. But it seems to me, it was working great, and now it isn't. So maybe all solid-state is the answer. I don't know. Mary
