More about cluster sizes
Using the default cluster size is normally the best option.
Smaller cluster sizes allow for more efficient storage if the volume is to contain a vast number of very
small files.
Bigger cluster sizes make it possible for the volume to have a size beyond normal limits. For example,
you can create a 4-GB volume with the FAT16 file system, by using a cluster size of 64 KB.
Important: Some programs do not work correctly with volumes whose file systems have big cluster sizes, such
as a cluster size of 64 KB in the FAT16 and FAT32 file systems, and cluster sizes of 8 KB through 64 KB in the
NTFS file system. For example, these programs may incorrectly calculate the total and available space on such
volumes.
6.7 Deleting a volume
This operation deletes a selected volume. The space that was occupied by the volume becomes
unallocated space on the corresponding disk or disks.
Caution: After you delete the volume, all data that is stored on it will be lost.
Tip: Deleting a mirrored volume means deleting both of its mirrors. For information on how to delete only one
mirror, see Removing a mirror (p. 47).
To delete a volume
1. Right-click the volume that you want to delete, and then click Delete volume.
2. Click OK to add the pending volume deletion operation.
The results of the pending operation are immediately displayed as if the operation had been
performed.
To perform the pending operation you will have to commit it (p. 24). Exiting the program without
committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.
6.8 Splitting a volume
This operation splits a volume in two by using a portion of the volume’s free space to create another
volume.
When splitting a volume, you can move some files and folders from it to the new volume. Splitting a
dynamic volume requires a reboot.
The original volume will retain its type (Primary or Logical for basic volumes, and Spanned, Striped,
Mirrored, or RAID-5 for dynamic volumes), volume letter, and volume label.
The new volume:
Will be a logical volume (for basic volumes).
Will be the same type as the original (for dynamic volumes).
Will be assigned the first available volume letter.
Will have the same volume label as the original volume.
Free space requirements. The original volume needs to have at least 5% of free space, but not less
than 50 MB. The required space will be available again as soon as splitting is finished.
