I have a 250GB portable hard drive that is currently formatted as FAT32. I've read that I need to reformat to NTFS for DAW use so I've copied everything over to an external drive and am ready to reformat this one. My question is regarding the 'allocation unit size' drop down menu - is there an optimal size for DAW applications? I've read that 512 bytes is bad, and that 4096 is what I want. Does this sound correct and if so should I just use the default allocation size option or set it to 4096? Or would I want to use 1024 or 2048?
Thanks!
Thanks!
