I have a late 2019 iMac and I am currently running Monterey. I replaced the original 3TB Fusion Drive with a 2TB SSD Drive which is running fine. The original 128GB SSD was fused with the new SSD to create one 2.12TB Fusion Drive. I have now received a warning in DriveDX and iStat menu that the original SSD only has 4% life left. I want to avoid the Mac running into problems and would like to split the Fusion Drive and only use the "new" SSD Drive. However, the original 128GB SSD is showing in Disk Utility as having 22.23GB of data on it.
My questions are 1) how can I find out what this data is? 2) Is there a safe way of splitting the Fusion Drive and disabling the original SSD partition? 3) Is there another option? Do I need to be concerned if the original SSD fails if the "new" SSD is working fine?
Many thanks
