Someone posted a guide on the ars technica forums about splitting a fusion drive. It looked pretty simple. I'll try to find it for you.

I'd be much more tempted to open it up and put a bigger SSD in there... Not a big job - just scary.

Aye, found and read a guide, it's more the size that worries me as opposed to the process. Just installed OSX and CC from fresh and it's taking up 25 GB. Rushed a boot camp install and its ended up 400gb. Going to see how DayZ runs then make my mind up in splitting. No time, money or nerve to crack it open atm!

Ok, so after formatting, the 128gb will be a bit less but you should get at minimum 60gb for each partition (probably more) which will be fine for the OS and essential applications. Then you can just use the 1tb hdd as bulk storage, which I assume is the plan.
