I imagine they're talking about filesystem blocksize, cylinders, heads, etc, shouldn't have any performance impact (but the calculated total space of the drive needs to be correct).

Right, but unless I'm mistaken, you would want to experiement with the
filesystem
blocksize setting where you create/modify your partitions, not the geometry settings in the drive setup menu.
