Explanation
MBR max out at 2Tb GPT disk starts at 2Tb to 9.4 zettabytes GUID Partition Table In computer hardware, GUID Partition Table (GPT) is a standard for the layout of the partition table on a physical hard disk. It forms a part of the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) standard, which is Intel's proposed replacement for the PC BIOS. It is also used on some BIOS systems because of the limitations of MBR partition tables. GPT allows for a maximum disk and partition size of 9.4 zettabytes (9.4 ?1021 bytes[1]). As of 2010, most current operating systems support GPT, although some operating systems (including Mac OS X and Windows) require systems with EFI hardware to support booting from GPT partitions. Diagram illustrating the layout of the GUID Partition Table scheme. In this example, each logical block (LBA) is 512 bytes in size, and each partition entry is 128 bytes. LBA addresses that are negative indicate position from the end of the volume, with 1 as the last addressable block.
