I have a Highpoint RocketRaid 20xx series raid controller and 6 4tb drives and 3 8tb drives attached to it. I am using it for my games library mostly , and for data storage. Everything is backed up in a 3-2-1 setup , so not worried about redundancy. I formatted it in Raid 0. My question is , how should the array be set? I need 4k clusters in order to install Xbox games to that array. But the underlying drive structure should be set to what? 4k,8k or what , in order for the best efficiency from the array? And how should the array be set? Use the 4tb drives in one array and the 8tb drives in another? Or all one one?
