Partition alignment 8 TB seagate Ironwolf
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
1
I have a Seagate disk that I am trying to get partition aligned. I've tried this command in parted:
sudo parted /dev/sda mklabel gpt
sudo parted -a opt /dev/sda mkpart primary ext4 0% 100%
Get this fdisk error:
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sda1 65535 15628000379 15627934845 7.3T Linux filesystem
Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary.
How do I get this disk partion aligment in parted ?
(I've also tried this guide: https://rainbow.chard.org/2013/01/30/how-to-align-partitions-for-best-performance-using-parted/
unsuccessfully)

Please format your code/data blocks. Select each block in turn and use thebutton on the editing menu to indent it four spaces. Also ensure there's a blank line above and below each block. (I'd do it for you if i weren't on a mobile device that doesn't have.)

Don't use parted, as it is obviously not up to the job. To partition a GPT disk, use gdisk. Alternatively, if your version of fdisk understands GPT partitions, you can use that as well. Just delete the partition and create a new partition. Format the partition with mkfs.ext4. Note that doing so will destroy any data you already have written to the disk.

The default value 8300 stands for "Linux filesystem", which is OK in this case.

Please format your code/data blocks. Select each block in turn and use the
button on the editing menu to indent it four spaces. Also ensure there's a blank line above and below each block. (I'd do it for you if i weren't on a mobile device that doesn't have.)– roaima
