REFS Allocation unit size for a volume containing virtual VHDX disks?
Hi,
To store VHDX vdisks, with NTFS, we’d use 64k but I’ve heard that 4k is recommended with REFS.
Is 4k actually correct to store VHDX on refs?
Thanks.

I guess this brings me to ask if I should be using REFS for Server 2019 Hyper-v or NTFS. I'll post that under a new topic.
