Recently upgraded from Windows 98SE to Windows XP Pro. (Very pleased, should
have done it sooner).
After I converted to NTFS on my 18 gig Western Digital hard drive I read 512
kb clusters are performance defeating. I thought by just selecting the
conversion, the rest would be taken care of by the conversion program. I
ended up with 512 kb clusters on the C drive and 4 mb clusters on the D 38
gig and E 38 gig drives - all three 10K rpm SCSI.
What is the problem with 512 kb clusters and is there a way to change them
to 4 kb clusters?
