Hi JJS

I have an iMac that has the specs for a dual boot but I am reluctant to do it.  
 It has a 1 TB fusion drive and when I upgraded from Sierra to Mojave I ended 
up with a non functioning fusion drive.   I had a nice long chat with the Apple 
Support tech trying to get it working again, then I was escalated and the 
engineer had me do a couple of other things and then my Mac was bricked.  He 
was a bit embarrassed and approved a free repair at my local Mac dealer.   
Turns out the upgrade detached the fusion drive’s SSD from its Hard Drive.

It turned out well in the end but I don’t want to go through that again.

Regards,

Martin Koob
