A quick question that I haven't been able to find and answer for. I have been using whole block devices (whole unpartitioned hard drives) in various raid 1 and 5 setups using mdadm 3.1.4 with pretty mundane options (default options such as striping and but using metadata 1.2). Typically I use mkfs.ext4 with no options (default) to install the filesystem. Is there an issue with alignment on the newer 4096-byte drives. If so what would be the proper approach? I thank you for your time.
