GPT

(GUID Partition Table)

GUID Partition Table (GPT) is a modern standard for partitioning storage devices, such as hard drives and SSDs. GPT replaces the older MBR (Master Boot Record) partitioning scheme and offers several advantages, including support for larger disks (over 2TB) and improved data integrity.

GPT uses a unique identifier (GUID) for each partition and stores multiple copies of the partition table across the disk, reducing the risk of data loss. It is the default partitioning scheme for modern systems using
UEFI firmware. GPT is widely adopted in both consumer and enterprise environments due to its robustness and compatibility with advanced storage technologies.
