What are the differences between MBR vs GPT vs any other partition scheme?
- by Safran Ali
Can anyone tell me what the main differences between i.e. MBR vs GPT or any other partition scheme are? Why would one choose one over the other?
I am not an expert but from new release of Mac OS X which includes a feature called Time Machine, which I find highly useful. GPT is the requirement for Mac OS X Lion ... so on this basis I would say that GPT is more useful than MBR.
What other partition schemes are there and which one should be used in which situation?
