HDD/SSD Partition ALIGNMENT is ENTIRELY an increase in disk seek/read/write data performance and data flow. No less complicated is the disk geometry since the "new age of SSD", now there is GDISK RAID. Trying not sound like "Alice down the rabbit-hole here" but it seems that NO one else on any other site (even Ubuntu forums) even gets what I am referring to (regarding partition alignment - the 512 and 4K alignment conundrum, integers and solve for.

Pertinent question relevant to pARAGON partition alignment utility. Another fine utility for the IT pro & disk performance tuner's (& most anyone who values quality SATA HDD and/or SSD longevity - which sell at NOT such a "meh" price).
