Final answer:
Option B is correct since GPT supports larger partition sizes and more partitions than MBR, and uses globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) for partition IDs. It is also compatible with UEFI systems, not just older BIOS systems.
Step-by-step explanation:
When implementing GPT partitioning, it's important to understand that B. GPT supports larger partition sizes and more partitions than MBR (Master Boot Record). Unlike MBR, which is limited to four primary partitions, GPT (GUID Partition Table) does not have such limitations and can support up to 128 partitions in Windows. Additionally, GPT allows for partitions larger than 2TB, which is the maximum partition size for MBR.
GPT is also more robust and includes redundancy by storing multiple copies of the partitioning and boot data across the disk, thereby minimizing the risk of data corruption. Furthermore, each partition in a GPT setup is identified by a unique GUID (Globally Unique Identifier), ensuring that every partition is distinct.
It is also notable that GPT is indeed compatible with modern UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) systems, which are more advanced than traditional BIOS systems. Option C, which states GPT is only compatible with older BIOS systems, is incorrect.
