Is 4tb My Book an advanced format drive? I am trying use windows server backup which requires 512e to write vhd files.
Has anyone used windows server backup with this drive?
fsutil fsinfo ntsfinfo says:
bytes per sector: 4096
bytes per physical sector: 4096
bytes per cluster: 4096
bytes per filerecord segment: 4096
This drive was purchased from big box retail store 7-2014

Maybe you should try contacting WD’s Technical Support about this. You can do so either by phone or email.

This has been resolved.
I updated the firmware and downloaded WD Quick Format tool.
After format with the WD Quick Format:
bytes per sector: 512
bytes per physical sector:
bytes per cluster: 4096
bytes per filerecord segment: 1024
