Answer 1

1. Run msinfo32 in command line that should popup a GUI window called "System Information"
2. In the left pane select "System Summary->Components->Storage->Disks". This should load info of all drives in the right pane
3. Find your desired drive and check the value for "Bytes/Sector". it should say "Bytes/Sector 4096"
