Disk could not be partitioned

Bought new iMac 2017 with 1tb FusionDrive, did my own fusion drive from external ssd and internal ssd. Now I try to install windows on 1TB HDD. But all the time when I run Boot Camp and it wants to create a partition, I get the "Your disk could not be partitioned" error.


Here is the overview of my drive:
