 |
|
Increased cluster sizes on some NTFS backup partitions and was
wondering if anybody has seen some guidance as to cluster size as a
function of file size distribution (statistically). I.E. if 90% of
a partition's files are under 50KB you would want a small cluster
size, if 90% are greater than 50MB you would want a large cluster
size, etc.

If I were you, I would try the storage group too. |
