Howdy,

I got my 10TB drive in today.  I want to maximize the amount of data I
can put on this thing and it remain stable.  I know about -m 0 when
making the file system but was wondering if there is any other tips or
tricks to make the most of the drive space.  This is the output of cgdisk.


Part. #     Size        Partition Type            Partition Name
----------------------------------------------------------------
            1007.0 KiB  free space
   1        9.1 TiB     Linux filesystem          10Tb
            1007.5 KiB  free space


I'm not sure why there seems to be two alignment spots.  Is that
normal?  Already, there is almost 1TB lost somewhere.  Any way to
increase that and still be safe?  Right now, I've ran the short test and
it is chewing on the long test.  It will be done around 7AM tomorrow, 19
or 20 hours to complete.  As it is, there's no data on it or even a file
system either.  Now is the time to tweak things. 

Any tips or ideas would be appreciated. 

Dale
