SQL Server Disk Optimization to make SQL Faster in windows.

Hi again,

I was said that 64 K block size is optimum for SQL Server. But Windows formats new partition with 4 KB block size by default. Probably 4KB block size is optimum for running Windows.

I am going to setup a Physical (not Virtual) Server for our small clinic with just one Disk set (RAID 10 with 4 or 6 disks).

Can somebody suggest me if that a good idea to create two partitions on that disk set-one (C:) for Windows OS with 4 KB block size and second (D:) for SQL Server installation with 64 KB block size?

How it impact on my manageability (Windows updates, patches, etc)? 

Thank you in advance,

Alex
