- Description
- GPT (GUID Partition Table) is the standard format used to define the partitions of computer storage devices like hard disks using globally unique identifiers (GUIDs). It is also used on some BIOS systems to replace the early version master boot record (MBR) method, which supported up to 2.2TB partitions. GPT supports up to 18 Terabytes partitions.
- It is an open-source file compressor and decompressor that is freely available and uses the Burrows-Wheeler codec. It isn't a file archiver as it compresses single files.
