3. Enter the new root size (a number of elements) in the Resize Root

Resize FAT16 root window

FAT16 can contain a maximum of 65520 elements.

4. By clicking OK, you add the pending operation of FAT16 partition root

resizing (your actions may only undo or modify an existing operation. See

2.4.5 «Modifying pending operations»).

4.2.7 Changing cluster size

Smaller clusters (see Appendix B «Glossary» — «Cluster») might significantly

reduce disk space losses, related to the fact that any file occupies at least

one cluster/block.

Disk space losses depending on cluster size are shown in Appendix A (see

A.9.2 «FAT16» — Table 3).

However reducing FAT32 partition cluster size might increase the space, oc-

cupied by file allocation table (FAT) and slowdown file access.

If you need to change cluster size:

1. Select disk and partition from the list in Acronis PartitionExpert main

window,

2. Execute operation of cluster resizing by selecting Disk Æ Advanced Æ

Change cluster size or a similar item in the Advanced sidebar list, or by

clicking

Change the cluster size of the selected partition on the tool-

bar (or selecting it from partition or the graphical representation con-

text menu),
