Hi,
I was just wondering whether it is possible to fomat iPod with different cluster size. The file system on windows platform is FAT32 and the default cluster size in 4K.
If I can specify custom cluster size say 512 bytes I guess you will have overall more storage space as full 4K will not be wastes in case of partially filled clusters.
I am assuming that the filesystem on iPod behaves as standard FAT32 filesystem.
Also does defragmenting your iPod will damage it?
any thought?
Thanks
