CentOS 5.4: HDD drive support with sector size of 4096 bytes
- by FractalizeR
I'm going to replace damaged HDDs in my server with new drives, which have sector size of 4096 bytes instead of 512.
Does CentOS natively support such drives? If yes, since which version? If no, what actions should I take to correctly prepare such a drive to work. How to check that such a drive is correctly recognized by OS?
