Re: EVA4100 and SQL allocation unit size when formatting drive.
The microsoft web site has many interesting articles. Search for "sql server storage alignment"

Per that article it agree's with all of your statements.
Quote" 64-KB offset (128 sectors) is a common value that works on many storage arrays and has been used with success in the SQL Server test labs (at the time of writing this paper). Vistaâ ¢ and Windows Longhorn Server remove the need to manually establish correct alignment and use 1024 KB (2048 sectors) as a starting offset, which will probably work well for almost any array."
I wonder why HP EVA rep's say not do this at all.
