Mac Fusion Drive
The iMac, MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac Pro all have Mac Fusion Drives, which we can fix. This is a hybrid drive combining the traditional hard drive with a flash drive. Apple’s Mac Fusion drive has the advantage of larger storage capacity. The flash drive allows users to enjoy faster processing speeds. While other Fusion Drives simply use the flash memory to operate on top of the traditional hard drive, the Mac actually allows it to add more processing storage space. The Mac’s operating system is able to handle both halves to make them appear as a single logical volume. When these drives fail, both the hard drive and flash drive are needed for repair purpose.
Why Does Data Loss Occur?
People sometimes take their electronic devices for granted. Does our automobile run forever? No. So, why do we expect our computers to run forever? Data loss from Fusion Drive happens due to accidental deletion, disk formatting, file-system errors, malware or simply due to the old age of the device. You may be running a great home graphics arts business, but can simply make an error by emptying the trash hurriedly. Perhaps, you are downloading another file and you delete some important file, sector or partition. You may have clicked on a website link and it sent malware to corrupt your MacOS drive. The results could be disastrous and happen in an instant. Accidental deletion is a reality for all computer users. If you have children, the chances of data deletion are much higher. The good news is that Stellar Data Recovery for Mac successfully performs data recovery from a Mac Fusion Drive in all of these situations.

My iMac won’t boot from an internal fusion drive. Can I run your recovery software from mac’s Recovery Mode? Other possibilities?
Extracting the drives from an iMac is rather complicated… (Thanks, Steve Jobs!)
Hello Hans,
You can recover data by Target Disk Mode approach and run Stellar Data Recovery software from the host Mac systems. As of now, the software doesn’t recover from a non-booting computer.

Hi, my fusion drive has been inadvertently reformatted (erased by Carbon Copy Cloner) and there is no longer a partition that indicates an SSD drive. Is the entire HD and SSD partitions be “recombined” and reinstalled with Mac OS like it was upon purchase? Thanks…
Hi Msnuel,
I recommend you to install Stellar Data Recovery Professional for Mac and run Can’t find Volume on your Apple physical drive. The software finds the lost/deleted partitions and further you can recover the data. The software doesn’t rebuild or reinstate the partitions.

My motherboard failed. Where do I attach my fusion drive parts on a new machine to use the software on them? I assume I put them in external boxes and usb or firewire them to the new machine. Am I on the right track?
Dear Nia,
Yes, you would be requiring to install the product on a different machine. The Fusion drives could be connected externally to that machine and the recovery can be started thereafter. You will require a new license key to register the software on another machine.
Hi Vishal,
I just bought the software.
I have a fusion drive, but the SSD portion has been erased (but not overwritten with data yet). The 1TB HD portion is intact. How can I use the software to recover info from the HD?
thank you,
Eric
Hello Eric,
We recommend to use the Stellar Mac Data Recovery software and then perform the ‘Can’t find drive’ option. You need to select the hard drive from the Drive list and click on ‘Search’ option. Once the volumes are found perform the Deep scanning to check for recoverable data from the software.
I always back up regularly but if you ever need to recover files from a bad drive, go for Stellar apps.
Dear Gloria,
Yes, in absence of backup this is a reliable tool.
I am curious to know the price of the mentioned software?
Hello Richard,
The cost of the software is $99 for a single system lifetime license.
