I haven't used fusion since I sold my Mac Mini a few years ago, but it was pretty darn good and awesome in terms of bang for buck. In terms of booting, launching apps, page-outs, and accessing frequently-used files, you get all the benefits of SSD. It's only when accessing big files and infrequently-used files that you got the HDD slowdown, which for most folks is rare or never happens.

That display itself is still worth at least $1,500. The entire computer you're getting for $249.

So yeah, still with Fusion Drives.

The Flash storage in the 1 and 2 TB Fusion Drives are only 24 GB, after formatting and macOS install it leaves under 10 GB.

Nice. HDD as the primary drive for a $1000 computer in 2019.

I think it's embarrassing to even still be shipping computers today with a spinning drive. SSD prices are a lot lower than they used to be. It's pretty shameful. I've wanted a new Mac for a long time but I refuse to buy something that is barely any improvement over my 2011 iMac (which has an ssd added to it).

I implore anyone who's considering this to opt for a model with SSD storage instead.
