RE: How to allocate unit for disk formatting on a cMP system?

. . . how to temporary reactivate it [RPC] in order to set the allocation unit to 64 kB for the music drive?

IIRC, as well as enabling RPC, you also need to enable the two Logical Disk Management services. But I wouldn't worry too much if you've formatted the disk in a different way - it'll be fine.

A 64KB sector size makes sense for a music drive (where file sizes are large) but it also makes sense not to lose sleep over it.
