Apple Fusion Drive
Restorer Ultimate automatically detects the components of Apple Fusion Drive and creates virtual Fusion Drives automatically. At the same time, Restorer Ultimate gives access to the individual components of the Apple Fusion Drive (hard drives and images).
When an automatically created Fusion Drive is selected, Restorer Ultimate highlights its components.
Restorer Ultimate shows the components of the Apple Fusion Drive on its APFS Fusion Components tab. Right-click the mdadm RAID and select Setup APFS Fusion Components on the shortcut menu.
Restorer Ultimate shows broken Fusion Drive in pink.
The APFS Fusion Drive Components tab also allows you to manually disconnect or connect the components, for example, if they are such damaged that Restorer Ultimate cannot recognize them as parts of a broken Fusion Drive. Select the object from the drop-down box and click the Connect button. Restorer Ultimate displays the objects it recognizes as the components of the Fusion Drive in blue.
You may immediately switch to the Fusion Drive configuration that Restorer Ultimate believes most probable by clicking the Reassemble button.
