Do you have any notion what if any performance penalty there is staying with 512 byte sectors?
I have no idea what the penalty with your SSDs would be, but the penalty should only be when writing.
SSDs need to erase a block before they can write. Without a good matchup, they will need to do read/modify/write, or read/modify/erase/write. This will severely hurt performance once the device becomes rather full.
