Comparison between "GPT partitioning scheme" and "MBR partitioning scheme"

At present, most of the hard disks on the computer adopt the MBR partitioning scheme. We have discussed MBR disks in detail. Now let's talk about GPT disks. GPT full name globally unique identifier partition table format (guid Partition Table) is derived from the disk partition architecture used by EFI (extensible firmware interface. Now let's explain it in the most straightforward language --

Comparison:An MBR disk can have a maximum of four primary partitions and the maximum disk capacity is 2 TB. a gpt disk can have a maximum of 128 primary partitions (in Windows ), the maximum supported disk capacity is 18eb (1 EB = 1024 TB ). Each GPT disk has a proteve ve MBR, which is used to prevent the destruction of the disk management tool that cannot identify the GPT partition. For Windows systems, the "GPT Partition Scheme" contains several partitions: MSR partition and ESP partition. Previously mentioned protective
MBR, which is an MSR partition in windows, is a required partition. ESP partition (not a required partition) is a uefi bios computer system, partitions that store startup files (of course, there are other files ).

GPT "Advantages and Disadvantages" coexist.Advantages: Supports larger hard disks, more partitions, larger individual partitions, guid for each partition, and built-in backup for the partition table. Of course, the guid Partition Table also exists.Insufficient, As shown in:

Note: The speed of hardware development is always surprising. Several TB hard disks and efi bios computers will become popular, and The GUID partitioning scheme will eventually become the mainstream.
