Hi, I keep getting this problem when trying to install the SQL Server (Developer Edition) through basic installation. I have attached the ERRORLOG.txt to this message - I cannot decipher what the root cause is when I try to sift through the details. Any help you all can provide would be greatly appreciated!

The message below in the error log indicates the root cause is related to system disk sector size greater than 4 KB:

2024-01-28 08:42:40.20 spid35s There have been 256 misaligned log IOs which required falling back to synchronous IO. The current IO is on file C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL16.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\master.mdf.
