Gpt Driver
Short for GUID partition table, GPT is a part of the EFI standard that defines the layout of the partition table on a hard drive. GPT is designed as an improvement to the MBR partitioning system, which has a 2.2 TB partition size limitation. GPT is part of the UEFI standard, but may also be used on older BIOS systems. Using GPT, a drive could support between 8 and 9.4 ZB, depending on the sector size.
If you're using a version of Windows that supports GPT, while setting up a drive in Disk Management, you will receive a prompt similar to the example below. Selecting GPT and clicking OK will initialize the disk as a GPT partition style.
