Changing cluster size
- Smaller clusters might significantly reduce disk space losses related to the fact that any file occupies at least one cluster/block.
However, reducing FAT32 partition cluster size might increase the space occupied by the file allocation table (FAT) and slow down file access.
-
- To change cluster size:
• Select a disk and partition from the list in the Acronis Disk Director Suite main window.
• Select Disk - Advanced - Change cluster size or a similar item in the Advanced sidebar list or by clicking Change cluster size on the toolbar.
• In the Cluster Size window, you can:
− see the current cluster size of selected partition
− see average statistics of disk space losses for the selected partition and different cluster size.
− set new cluster size in the New cluster size field
• By clicking OK you'll add the pending operation of cluster resizing.
