If you will be storing video on the drive, put the block size as high as it can go. The larger the block size, the fewer number of blocks. The fewer the number of blocks, the smaller the file indexing system will be and the less overhead there will be. Though, its worth noting that you might want to use a file system that supports deduplication like Windows Server 2012 + NTFS or some of the versions of Windows 8 + NTFS; There is a deduplication role you can add that turns on nightly deduplication processing; Also ZFS is king of the linux Deduplication market.

If you have a lot of video of people peeing in stair wells (just saying) then you need a big cluster size. If you have lots of 30 second video clips then you can go with a small cluster size. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Colin Stanners Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 00:03 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [SkullSpace-Discuss] hard drive partition All filesystems are pretty efficient these days - it depends more on cluster size than other aspects - I doubt you'd see more than 1% usable space variance between them. Choose your FS based on OS support.
