That fusion drive has been the source of many problems according to some that have posted here. What is a RAID 10 drive array? How many SSD's are in there? You'd be better off dumping the RAID via OSX disk utility and having OSX see them as separate drives. What version of OSX are you running? You don't say. Do you have PT recording to a separate drive and not a partition of a drive? Have you REALLY optimized your iMac to Avid's specs? Are you using wireless connections to the net - that's not good if you do that while PT is running. Wireless networking should be disabled while in PT.
