Hi,
When I purchase a HP disk it comes with a sector format of 512n or 512e.
Is there a way to change this format?
I want all my disks to be 512n or 512e (I've comes across a problem when I mix disks of different format sector sizes)
cheers
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionIt is impossible to change the hard disk's sector size. It is a characteristic of the hard disk itself.
Hope this helps!
