SSD vs Fusion Drive for storing photos and docs

Am in process of choosing an iMac. I want to understand better the storage capacity, ie SSD vs Fusion Drive. I have just over 308 GB of photos and documents (which will increase over time) which I want to save on the computer rather than in the cloud. Am I better off opting for the 1TB fusion drive storage?

The SSD is always a better option as your iMac will receive an overall performance boost. Large files can be stored on an external USB external hard drive.. the last one I got from Amazon was $100 for 5TB.
