I'm trying to understand this new 4k drive workings. I've read a few sites that talks about how 4k drives degrade in performance severely when running in 512e mode due to alignment issue, but I cannot find any information on how to correct it.
If I had two Samsung 2TB drives (not known whether it's running in 4k or 512b) and four Seagate 2TB drives (4k running in 512e mode), would removing the Samsung drives cause the Seagates to perform better? Is that how it works?
