To change cluster size
1. Right-click the volume whose cluster size you need to change, and then click Change cluster size.
2. Select the required cluster size from the list. The default cluster size is marked in the list as
(default). The default cluster size depends on the volume size and the type of the file system. For
example, the default cluster size for up to 2-TB NTFS volumes is 4 KB.
Important: The program does not allow you to select a particular cluster size if, the free volume space will
decrease to the point where the data will not fit on the volume.
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. Acronis Disk Director displays warning messages, when you select such cluster sizes.
3. Click OK to add the pending cluster size changing 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.
