  1. Compression is only available on NTFS.
    When the cluster size is greater than 4 KB on an NTFS volume, NTFS compression is not available

  2. The solution must ensure that the image files will be compressed by using file system compression

    Unfortunately, NTFS compression only works with 4K clusters, so using 64K clusters isn’t suitable when using NTFS compression. Consider increasing the fragmentation limit instead, as described in the previous bullets.

  3. Il would have said
    NTFS
    64 K
    considering this “While a 4K cluster size is the default setting for NTFS, there are many scenarios where 64K cluster sizes make sense, such as: Hyper-V, SQL, deduplication, or when most of the files on a volume are large.”
