7 Conclusion

The industry transition away from the legacy 512-byte sector is a certainty, and gives hard drive suppliers

another tool for driving improved areal densities. Dell and our customers both benefit from this transition

through higher capacity hard drives and continued reliability.

The key to a smooth transition is a well-educated storage community who can avoid potential

performance pitfalls. The most critical aspect of a smooth and successful transition to 4K sectors used in

Advanced Format is performance. Whether you are building or configuring a computer, do the following

to ensure optimal performance:

• Use"an"operating"system"to"align"partitions"on"a"4Kn"boundary

• Use"third-party"software"or"utilities"to"create"hard"drive"partitions;"verify"with"your"Dell"team"to"

ensure"the"products"you're"using"have"been"updated"and"confirmed"to"be"4K

Together with our industry colleagues and customers, we can make the transition to Advanced Format 4K

sectors smooth and efficient, leveraging the long-term potential benefits for Dell and our customers.
