Umm, a fusion drive is slower than a straight SSD. It was devised when the price of SSDs was very high (as opposed to merely high today).
And opening a 2012 mini is very easy while installing a second drive is involved but not difficult. Watch the OWC video or read the ifixit instructions.
Sorry for my ignorance on the subject of Fusion drives. So what advantages DOES a fusion drive have?
Cost and ease of organization. But at the price premium Apple charges you can get a 1TB SSD for the price of their 1TB Fusion Drive.
