- `disk_alignment`, `journal_block_size`, `meta_block_size` should be set to the internal
block size of your SSDs which is 4096 on most drives.
- `journal_no_same_sector_overwrites true` prevents multiple overwrites of the same journal sector.
Some SSDs (like Intel D3-4510) don't like such overwrites so they benefit from this setting.
When this setting is set, it is also required to raise `journal_sector_buffer_count` setting,
which is the number of dirty journal sectors that may be written to at the same time.
Most (99%) SSDs don't need this option. But Intel D3-4510 does because it doesn't like when you
overwrite the same sector twice in a short period of time. The setting forces Vitastor to never
overwrite the same journal sector twice in a row which makes D3-4510 almost happy. Not totally
happy, because overwrites of the same block can still happen in the metadata area... When this
setting is set, it is also required to raise `journal_sector_buffer_count` setting, which is the
number of dirty journal sectors that may be written to at the same time.

- At this point, one of the monitors will configure PGs and OSDs will start them.
