EV Storage Block Size and Exchange 2013

Not applicable

We are in the early stages of design a new Exchange 2013 environment.  The recommended block size on the storage for Exchange is now 32KB however we run a massive EV environment where any item over 14 days is archived and stubbed in the users mailbox for two years.  As the majority of our users mailboxes are EV stubs are there any recommendations or best practice that could impact the 32KB block size decision on the storage for Exchange?

Exchange stores emails in the Jet DB ;and as such message size is not a consideration.  So, having small shortcuts (stubs) vs large emails will have no impact on the block size or storage patterns.
