Splitting the Fusion drive

내 문제

The spinning HDD side of the Fusion drive developed unrecoverable hard damage. Led to a surprising number of spinning beach balls.

나의 수리

Straight forward. The wheel cut made screen removal quick.

내 조언

Vacuum what dust you can during the job. Also, the HDD rubber boot completely fell apart. I just put the ends back on before screwing the HDD back in place.
