[Nottingham] Aligning blocks/partitions on an HDD

I just got this news through my Google Reader.
It seems some company have released software that claims to align things
like partition boundaries.
The article can be found here:

Is there any truth in this, or is it more HDD hocum? (Like expensive defrag
programs that all just call the same Windows API)
