Running 64-bit Windows 8 on 3TB Fusion Drive?

64-bit Windows 8 supports EFI, thus the 2TB disk limit shouldn't be a problem, right? Is it possible to install Windows 8 onto a 3TB iMac without using Boot Camp?


I'm looking for a simple way to get this running, at least until Apple comes out with an official solution. I've seen several ways to get around this, but none seem ideal.

I tested Windows 8 on EFI mode on my iMac and it works, but after some starts, it started showing BSODs. Also, as you have an iMac with Fusion Drive, I wouldn't try to install Windows 8 until Apple launches official drivers for it and install it with BIOS emulation (Boot Camp emulates a BIOS to use Windows)
