Hi, When building a filesystem (FFS) on these 1/2/3/4TB external USB drives, any suggestions? E.g., changing block sizes? Cut into multiple slices to make fsck's job easier (as well as *recovery*)? Any other pointers? [Note that I'm not looking for "performance" -- otherwise I wouldn't be going the external route -- but, rather, "bulk, semi-offline storage"] Thx, --don
