Hi,
Recently i was asked by a client's system administrator what is the recommended(if any) "block size or sector size" when formatting a hard drive to be used for storing Qlikview's QVW and QVD files.
i was never asked thios before and never even thought about it. i guess there is some merit to the question but i dont know the answer
i assume the larger the files the larger the block size should be, but that is just my guess.
i want to know if there is any recomandatin about it from qlik.
thanks for any answer
Daniel
Qlik doesn't access the storage directly else the used OS. Therefore I think there is not really a need to set this setting manually - just following the recommendation from the OS by the installation should be ok.

Hi Daniel,
Did you manage to find the answer to your question? I am setting up a new system and would like to know the block sizes as well. I can't seem to find anything on this in the docs.
Thanks
