need help plotting

couple of days ago I got some help from you guys to manually plot a hard drive because access was Denied when I tried to use the v1.0 that is apart of the AIO wallet went great for the "E" drive tried to duplicate it for my "I" drive and this is what I get C:\Users\croyd\Downloads\XPlotter.v1.0>xplotter_avx.exe -id 9611890149370107819 -sn 1000000000 -tb -path I:\burst\plots 32G
XPlotter v1.0 for BURST

Drive i:\ info:
Name: My Book
File system: exFAT
Serial Number: 4128754593
FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES: no
Bytes per Sector: 512
Sectors per Cluster: 2048

Thank you,

@croydan1 The drive is formatted as Fat32, you need to reformat it as NTFS - preferably with a 64KB Blocksize.

@haitch ok cool did notice I'm a little under the weather so to speak
-
@croydan1 did not notice
-
@croydan1 so now this is what I get C:\Users\croyd\Downloads\XPlotter.v1.0>xplotter_avx.exe -id 9611890149370107819 -sn 900000001 -t 8 -path I:\burst\plots 32G

@haitch What is the benefit of selecting 64kb unit size? I just finished all my drives, but I may go back through them if there is some benefit over the standard 4k bytes?
-
@DougLife 64KB should be slightly faster.
try doing:
open a cmd prompt (start -> Run -> cmd )
md i:\burst
md i:\burst\plots
then plot
-
@DougLife Is just due to the plotting speed. I am not aware if it could have any effect on mining, but I don;t think so.
