+ Storage devices may report a physical block size that is
+ bigger than the logical block size (for instance a drive
+ with 4KB physical sectors exposing 512-byte logical
+ blocks to the operating system). This parameter
+ indicates how many bytes the beginning of the device is
+ offset from the disk's natural alignment.

-Description:
- Storage devices may report a granularity or preferred

- device can perform without incurring a performance
- penalty. For disk drives this is often the physical
- block size. For RAID arrays it is often the stripe
- chunk size. A properly aligned multiple of

-Description:
- Storage devices may report an optimal I/O size, which is
- the device's preferred unit for sustained I/O. This is
- rarely reported for disk drives. For RAID arrays it is
- usually the stripe width or the internal track size. A

- with the previous I/O request are enabled. When set to 2,

+ indicates the size in 512B sectors of the RAID volume
+ stripe segment. For a zoned block device, either
