How to Change Volume Cluster Size

About Change Volume Cluster Size

As is known to all, cluster is the smallest unit to save and manage files on disk in Windows operating systems.

One cluster can only hold 1 file even if it is only 1 byte. The volume used for saving small files should be configured with small clusters, which can improve disk space use ratio. The volume used for saving large files should be appointed with large clusters, which can optimize data read-write speed largely.

Well then, how to change cluster size of a certain volume reasonably? Change Volume Cluster Size feature of MiniTool Partition Wizard can help complete this operation in simple operations and without data loss.
