shaokhann Posted November 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 Thanks for taking the call. The problem is that even downloading emu station from XBMC4GAMERS, it happened to me for 2 times fatal error, causing the corruption of the emu station folder that can no longer be deleted. That's why I think the problem is in the 1tb abdomen. I wait to know if I formatted correctly from the image above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 19 hours ago, shaokhann said: Is it formatted correctly? No! ER next to the size of partition 6 and 7 indicate an error. Both partitions need to be reformatted using the correct cluster size of 32KB. You could also use partition 6 only (F drive) with 64KB cluster allocation. Move the selection up to each of the two partitions, 6 and 7, to see the cluster size currently configured for each in the bottom section of the screen. Update: If they are set to use 16KB clusters once you write more than 256GBs of data to the drive, the content at the beginning of the drive will be overwritten. Corrupting the content already present on the hard drive (e.g., strange characters appearing in file names, missing files and/or directories). All sorts of bad things happen to some of the data previously written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaokhann Posted November 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 Okay, how do I proceed to format correctly to 64k? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 Press the back button for help and find the key that cycles through the various partition options. Return to the main screen. The button to do so is also shown on the help page. Cycle through the standard partitioning options until it shows F (partition 6) only taking the remainder of the available space on the hard drive. The cluster allocation again will be displayed in the bottom section of the screen. It should now read 64KB when partition 6 alone is used - greater than 512GBs in size. Press Start to perform the Write & Format option. reboot. Run XBPartitioner v1.3 again to make sure the re-partitioning worked. If not, redo it again, repeat to check. If all is well, no ER printed next to the partition's size, start FTPing content back to the drive. Good luck! If you are okay with splitting the space between F and G it smaller cluster allocations. A cluster is the smallest amount of space that can be allocated to a file. So, if the game/app has 100's to 1000's of files less than the cluster size each will take at a minimum one cluster be it 16K, 32K or 64K. The larger the cluster the more wasted space. 16KB cluster allocation supports partitions up to 256GBs in size 32KB cluster allocation => 512GBs 64KB cluster allocation => 1024GB or 1TB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaokhann Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 So, guys, I followed your advice and through xbmpartitioner 1.3 I formatted it the 2 partitions. Being 2 partitionsibda 497gb me has formatted them in 32k Over 512 gb should be formatted in 64k. Now I shouldn't have any more overwriting problems.
