RHEL/Centos6 handling disks w/4k sectors?

[Les Mikesell <lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know if 4k sectors will be handled better by the kernel in Centos6? 
  I'd like to copy backups to a 750Gb laptop type drive for offsite storage but 
the best write speed I can get is about 8MB/sec even with dd to the raw disk 
which shouldn't have an issue with partition alignment.
