What's wrong with my Fusion Drive?

I'm having weird issues with my internal Fusion Drive.

Symptoms:

  1. It gave itself a new cryptical name, and I can't change it back
  2. In most cases I cannot install new software anymore (e.g. I cannot update Flash)
  3. It is sometimes shutting down immediately
  4. Disk Utility says "no errors found" but can't mount it.

See below for some screenshots:

Referring to Point 4 and 1 (says: Volume seems to be ok, see the weird name...)

Referring to Point 2 (says: Installation failed)

My counteractions so far

  1. Ran the Apple Hardware Test. Result: nothing found.
  2. Ran the First Aid (see screenshot). Result: nothing found.

No backup is available.

Any help is much appreciated! Wanna get rid of this :(
