Hi

We are configuring 2 databases each with Direct Attached Storage to work with Oracle 10g Rel 2 server on Windows X64

Assuming one of the database is 4K and the other is 8K what values should we set for the following for optimal I/O

Blocks Size                                       NTFS Alignment                                NTFS Allocation     Segment Size

4KB                                                 64K or 128K or something else           4,8,16,32,OR 64K   8K,16K,32K,54K,128K,256K, OR 512K
8KB                                                 64K or 128K or something else           4,8,16,32,OR 64K   8K,16K,32K,54K,128K,256K, OR 512K

Thanks in advance for your assistance

Howdy, Stranger!
