Hi Jeremy,

Not to argue, but rather to prevent further confusion, there's no such thing
as cluster size under Mac OS prior to OS X, someone, please, correct me if
I'm mistaken. This led me to another question: can someone explain if we are
about to see this under OSX? Since OSX supports UFS (never worked with that,
therefore the question), does that have anything similar to cluster size
Windows users have to specify, or will it be handled the same way we, Mac
users are used to working with? Any comments are highly appreciated.

Best,

Andy
