Partition Recovery Course - GPT Test

Sector numbers stored in GPT entry are given in

512-byte sectors
physical hardware sectors

There is a backup GPT header

false
true

What is the size of GPT entry?

256 bytes
usually 128 bytes but this is not obligatory
128 bytes

Why do the disks with GPT have MBR as well?

to provide additional performance
two partitioning schemes are better than one
to provide compatibility with old partitioning software
to provide additional reliability in case of failure

GPT short for

General Partition Table
Generic Partition Table
GUID Partition Table

Choose the correct signature of GPT header

EFI PART
EFIPART
efipart
efi part

Where is a backup GPT header located?

at the beginning of the physical disk
at the middle of the physical disk
1024 sectors after the main GPT header
at the end of the physical disk

Where is a protective MBR located?

in sector 1024
in the last sector
in sector 1
in sector 0

Check what you can get from GPT header

Check where one should look for GPT

at the beginning of the disk
at the end of the disk
ten sectors forth from the 128 GB boundary
in 1024th sector
one sector back from the 128 GB boundary
one sector back from the 2 TB boundary
