4k is the maximum size, that's what /L does and you can't tell it what size to use, without /L it's 1024, with /L it's 4096rnt-guy wrote:I'm confused, so should I be setting the cluster size to something larger? to What? Our largest file is 2TB (database image file). Should I use 8192 to be safe and just eat the disk space savings it loses?
Also wondering if I there's any reason I can't just create another volume formatted correctly and copy the files there and then point veeam to that location? Will that constitute a reseed process instead of moving it back?
