    Right.

    When macOS High Sierra is released to the public next week, the new Apple File System (APFS) feature will be limited to Macs with all-flash built-in storage, which means it won't work with iMacs and Mac minis that include Fusion Drives.

    Macs with Fusion Drives were converted to APFS during the beta testing process in the first macOS High Sierra beta, but support was removed in subsequent betas and not reimplemented.

    With the release of the Golden Master version of the software, Apple has confirmed APFS will not be available for Fusion Drives and has provided instructions for converting from APFS back to the standard HFS+ format.

    Apple says APFS will not be supported on Fusion Drives "in the initial release of macOS High Sierra," which suggests support could be added for Fusion Drives at a later date after lingering bugs are worked out.

    It will help your battery life. Honestly it sounds like you got a dud of a phone. Mine is an older 6 and I haven't had really that many problems as you.

    God, me too. I was talking them up to some of my students a while back, so when they were on my desk yesterday a few of them pick them up to check them out. I was immediately embarrassed :uhoh:

    Will it actually help my battery? My iphone 6 lasts a full day on ios 10 right now.

    Someone with more knowledge correct me but I can see it negatively affecting it some because it trying to do more complicated processes that pushes your hardware more but I think the biggest battery life issues people see are just the batteries getting old.

    I used it in the past. It's definitely useful if you have a lot of low quality audio files and you don't currently use Apple Music. If you do, there's not really any use for it at all, imo.

    Well, i guess what i'm trying to do is reduce the size of the harddrive I need. I have something like 60gb of music stored locally.

    My install (iPhone) took just under a half hour from start through finish for anyone wondering. Download size was under 3GB. No issues.

    Working on Watch now.
