-Azure managed disks have native protection against torn writes to ensure data integrity, which you can use to reduce your performance overhead.
+Azure managed disks have native protection against torn writes for 8-KiB and 16-KiB blocks of data to ensure data integrity, which you can use to reduce your performance overhead.
 
 A torn write (or a partial write) can occur when a power loss or system crash interrupts a disk write, leaving a data block only partially updated. A partially updated data block results in an inconsistent page containing a mix of old and new data, essentially a torn page. Torn writes compromise data integrity, and data integrity is critical for applications like databases. Databases must detect and resolve torn writes to avoid corrupt records or indexes
