Hello
With the introduction of APFS and the its' prerequisite when installing Catalina and upcoming releases, it appears to me that Apple has deemed that the memory of the mechanical hard drive shall be surpassed to the annals of history.
I've been using Fusion Drives with great pleasure for years and seeing as this new file system not really being meant to be used on a HDD, I'm feeling a little bit befuddled on what to do with my collection of pristine, high-volume drives. Being a cheapskate, I'm not really inclined to invest in NVME and I'd rather use gear I've got lying around that works fine than buying new stuff.
I was surprised to see Buyers Advice section still lists a recommendation for a mechanical hard drive, and I'm wondering how Hackintoshers configure their setups to integrate HDDs into their setups with the least amount of hassle in 2020?
