SQL Server Instance Root Directory & Shared Feature Directory on Partition with 64k Allocation Unit Size?














0















I am in the process of setting up new test servers to migrate to SQL Server 2017. For certain reasons I dont have the option to have a separate drive partition for just SQL binaries so my options are to put the SQL binaries on C: with default allocation unit size or G: with 64k allocation unit size along with the data files.



I would prefer to avoid C: and put the binaries on G: but am not sure if there would be any negative performance impact with them being on a disk with 64k format.



Is one better than the other or does it not really make any difference for the binaries?
