SmartAlign Technology for Easy 4K Migration
-------------------------------------------
A change is coming to the hard drive industry. The smallest
sector of organized data on a drive is moving from 512 to 4,096
bytes. The new format, known as Advanced Format (AF) 4K, offers
advantages like increased efficiency, but migrating your drive
can be challenging. Luckily, Seagate is ready to help you make a
seamless transition to 4K sectors. Seagate's SmartAlign
technology automatically does the work of AF migration in the
background. The drive's performance is not affected, and there is
no need for time-consuming utilities required by other AF-enabled
drives.
