FMod Alignment

You must properly align the FMods before using the card.

Solid state flash devices have block alignments typically aligned on 4-Kbyte boundaries, not the 512-byte boundaries of conventional disks. To maximize performance, partitions need to be aligned on 4-Kbyte boundaries. For directions on aligning the FMods, see the Sun Flash Accelerator F20 PCIe User’s Guide. For more information on performance tuning, see
