Windows block offset

The factors that affect partition alignment are stripe unit size and partition starting offset. Click Start , click Run , type cmd, and then click OK. Notice the value of BlockSize and of StartingOffset for each given partition. The Index value that is returned by this command indicates whether a partition is the first partition, the second partition, or other partitions for a given disk drive. For example, a partition index of 0 is the first partition on a given disk.

To determine how many disk sectors a given partition starts from the beginning of the disk, divide the value for StartingOffset by the value of BlockSize. In the example in step 2, the following calculation yields the partition starting offset in sectors:. Skip to main content. This browser is no longer supported. Download Microsoft Edge More info.

I tried everything, even using multilines, angle offset it worked until i add the variable h2 which changes the slope, therefore the angle changes. Maybe it can't be done or is too complicated? Oh Libbya that's an amazing job, and also you teach me some new things, thank you sooo much. The only thing that left to solve is that the points where the red part and the green one meets must be in the same vertical plane when I change the c1 and c2 variable.

Maybe with a vertical constraint I can solve that? I will get to work right away on this. I don't understand. If C1 and C2 are different widths, then it is impossible for the points where red and green meet to be on the same vertical line unless there is a jog in either the red or the green. Please draw and post an example of how it should look with C1 and C2 different widths. I mean, the points must not be coincident but must be streched in the same vertical plane symetry plane of the structure.

I hope that with the image i can explain it better. I need it to be symmetrical at midpoint of the distance B. I built the DIMS into the block so that they will update accordingly. I've set the H1 as the Eave height. If you C1 and C2 are different there is no way your internal heights could be the same without having the ridge at two different heights.

Thank you Brian for your suggestions, i could solve it. I found cases where the drive letter was 4k but all the mount points which had the data were 64k. Hey Jen, what about setting up a new drive with your reccomendation and then restore a database from another server with another disk config.

Will it work the same way as a new one? Tks and best regards from Brazil. This is a disk issue, so it doesnr matter where the database comes from. As long as the disk is formatted properly, all is well. Does that help? Thank You. Obviously, all data on the disk will be deleted if you want to do the entire SSD alignment with Diskpart. Fortunately, the second method can help you do alignment without data loss.

Step 2 : in the pop-up window, select sector from the given list and click OK. Tips : A reboot is required if do partition alignment on system drive. One more topic that as matter as partition alignment is benchmark. Surely, it cannot be installed on other brands of SSDs. Install and launch Samsung Magician. Please note that it is said that the OS Optimization option has been removed in newly released Samsung Magician 5 because Windows 10 does not need it any more.
