Title: Playback Drive Format Post by: coliny on January 09, 2014, 02:02:39 pm Your page on formating gives this command:-
format F: /fs:exFAT /q Should it not include command for 64K cluster:- F: /FS:exfat /A:64000 /Q Title: Re: Playback Drive Format Post by: PeterSt on January 09, 2014, 02:06:49 pm Hi Colin,
The question is good but the answer is No; The command given is an emergency format (for when the volume appears not to be empty - occupied by system files), and later XXHighEnd will be able to format it herself because of your command - now with its own under the hood options.

I have 7GB unformated on my drive so for now I will format it NTFS 64K clusters using W7 partition utility and see how it goes. Thanks Colin Title: Re: Playback Drive Format Post by: CoenP on January 09, 2014, 09:02:45 pm My experience with the ramdisk is that no matter what you've formatted it to, xx will reformat the playbackdrive to exfat.
The strange thing is that I could hear differences between different "original" diskformats. Regards, Coen Title: Re: Playback Drive Format Post by: coliny on January 10, 2014, 12:02:48 pm Thanks Coen
For me also XXHE has changed it to exFAT. I think there's no gain for me using playback drive. In terms of speed that is. Colin |
