WD20EARS-00MVWB0 formatting

[Czeslaw]

I bought a new hard drive WD20EARS- 00MVWB0, and is installed as a secondary drive. I prepared the drive using Disk Management (operating system is Windows 7 32-bit). I have the intention to format the disk, as it was not able to choose the size of the allocation unit, at the same time as preparing the disc .I have the following questions:

1. I set the size of the allocation unit to 4096 bytes? Format the disk to the NTFS file system.
2. Is the size of the allocation unit size tantamount with the sector on the disk?
3. I set the allocation unit of 4 KB and this record is an advanced disk formatting?
4. I can manually choose the size of the sector, while formatting the disk?

1. "Default" should be fine.
2. No, it is "Assignment" is the amount that Windows uses for each. In a unit of 512-byte sector allocation of 4096 bytes, Windows uses 8 sectors of the physical unit of each allocation unit.
3. Well, you do not have to .nevertheless Windows must choose multiples of 4096, so that each allocation unit is a whole number of physical sectors.
4. No
