Almost all NVMe drives use 4k sectors. Its actually hard on the drive
to use 512 byte sectors, as when you write a block and sync it, it has
to read and then rewrite the rest of the 4k block. That's unnecessary
writes, shortening your drive life. Most Linux platforms will read the
natural sector size from the drive when you format it, so using 512 byte
sectors is pretty rare these days, unless you forced it of course.

Hi guys.
I wonder if anybody played with both sector sizes 512 & 4086 and if
yes so - also had some test results / thoughts to share?
There are bits about it - bit confusing & a mixed-bag - over the net
but I failed to find anything Fedora-specific.
thanks, L.
