Hello,
1. If we use Historical Data Manager to download for example all Ticks for specific instrument and period, will Platform cache be filled with those data too ?(in appropriate cache format of course).
2. For the best performance point of view. What is the best allocation unit size we need to chose, while formatting HDD on whom will be stored platform cache ?

1) The data will get downloaded to cache.
2) It depends on many things - how fragmented the disk is, what is the file size. Cache files usually are smaller than 32 KB so it is not useful to set unit size bigger than that.
