Does anyone know if Vista will clean install onto a volume that has a
16k cluster size?
 
At the moment I'm running XP Home on a RAID 0 array with 16k stripes and
a 16k cluster size as I've found I get the best oerformance with this
setup and perhaps wrongly I was considering using the same setup when I
move over to Vista.Running NTFS by the way.

Regards Andy
 
Okay, that sounds better. The problem you're going to
encounter is getting the RAID drivers for Vista. I have
seen it posted frequently that people could not get the RAID
recognized by Vista because of drivers.
