Episode 53 — Partitioning and Volumes — MBR, GPT, and Logical Configurations
In this episode, we explore how to configure storage partitions and volumes, starting with the differences between Master Boot Record (MBR) and GUID Partition Table (GPT) formats. We explain the limits of each system in terms of partition size and number, as well as their compatibility with different operating systems. Logical configurations such as dynamic disks and extended partitions are also discussed to provide a complete picture of storage structuring.
We connect these concepts to practical examples, such as setting up boot volumes for large-capacity drives or configuring logical volumes to enhance flexibility. Troubleshooting scenarios include repairing corrupted partition tables and recovering from misconfigured volume layouts. A strong understanding of partitioning methods ensures candidates can structure storage effectively for both exam objectives and real-world deployments.
