Partition Recovery Course - GPT Test

Check where one should look for GPT

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

Where is a backup GPT header located?

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

Check what size an MBR partition can have on a GPT disk

2TB on a disk larger than 2 TB
always full disk capacity
full disk capacity on a disk smaller than 2 TB
128 GB

GPT short for

GUID Partition Table
Generic Partition Table
General Partition Table

Sector numbers stored in GPT entry are given in

physical hardware sectors
512-byte sectors

Each entry in the GPT table of entries describes one partition

false
true

Disks with GPT have MBR as well

false
true

Why do the disks with GPT have MBR as well?

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

Where is the main copy of GPT header located?

in the middle of the physical disk
at the beginning of the physical disk
at the end of the physical disk

How many GPT header copies are stored?

2
4
3
