Hello.
I'm cloning Win10 installation on a new PC from a hard drive to a Samsung 960 Evo. It seems like I've heard that block size (or sector size? ... or page size?) should be different for performance reasons on a hard drive vs SSD.
1. If I just clone the HDD to the SSD, will it copy over an inefficient block size?
2. Would it be better to just format the SSD to the ideal block size and reinstall Win10 fresh?
3. What is the most efficient or ideal block size for a modern NVMe SSD?
Thanks.
