What MAY hurt, also for large writes, are the meta-data operations while writing the file. (e.g. the file-size changes, journaling ...) But i haven't tested that and can't say for sure how much that

It hurts a lot. On my 1TB EARS when i was benchmarking unaligned partitions, untarring a linux kernel for example took ages. (tar output finished quickly but then you had to wait a long time till th

Haven't read the whole thread so maybe this is redundant, but make sure all partitions (if any) are 4k aligned as well (unless it has the secret-handshake sector 63 offset...) -Eric
