Do you know if I can use any multiple of 512 bytes? Not just 4*512 but even even 100 * 512 ?
The bigger blocksize the faster I presume..
Yes that's the rule - as far as I know, any multiple of 512 is fine, but the optimal blocksize will depend on the hardware. I often use 65536. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
