no, sorry. make the clusters as SMALL as possible, so the last used cluster by a file is filled up more effectively. the clusters that do not fill completely contain the wasted space: cluster 256 bytes, data 64 bytes = 192 bytes wasted custer 4096 bytes, data 64 bytes = 4032 bytes wasted ____________________________________________________________ The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
