Im formatting a 70 gig device (go hardwar raid) which will be used to store a database. As you may / may not know MySQL (yes, we use that too) stores its data in only a handfull of very large files. For maximum performance i obviously want the largest block size possible, which is only 4k =( I was hoping for 8k or more. I am correct that if you want to store large files then large block sizes are good? Is there any reason that 4k is the limit?
