    Fusion drives are the aggregate of the SSD device and the HDD device; the Fusion drive is a combination of the two.

     

    This is unfortunately headed toward the reinstallation of OS X onto this system, and rolling in the most recent available backups — as that erase step may have clobbered more of the storage than intended.  (Partitioning can sometimes be — as you've found — hazardous to the contents of the storage.)

     

    Per Apple, you can create one partition on the HDD.
