Great Video!!
i understand this all, but what i not understand is…. why doesn't it allow me to install win7 on GPT??? is windows 7 only made for MBR??
Thank you. Was in explained in layman terms. I have C drive that's GPT and 2 other drives mbr. When I install a 4th drive can it be GPT or have to be MBR to match the other 2 drives?
Why does windows 7 install only on mbr partition, gpt on windows 10 ?
Great video! Not so great ears
Thank you so much. 😀
You just helped me a bunch, thank you!
Thanks for the tutorial.
What about using software like EaseUs Partition Master to convert from MBR to GPT?…. without data loss loss.
Great video, thanks for the help. One questions: would it matter whether I used MBR or GPT for a 500Gb SSD which I'm using for additional data storage? Does SSD tech favor either partition format in some specific way?
awesome explanation.. thank you sir!
Thanks for the information 😘
Nice explanation!👌
Me before this video : what knowledge this kid can give?!?
Me after video : I have learnt much for today.
Dude you are doing good but you could be BOSS. Seriously. Hope you realize your potential in time. Thanks for the video. I did enjoy it. A good coach makes people famous. Unfortunately I am not lucky so I help others. Really liked your video though it got closer to me than most
I was cursed with the same mind if you are like me you are involved with all things"writing code building cmp and everything under the sun I do chemistry science shop mentoring my own construction business. Cursed and you hit some familiar points. You are not a gamer I know what you're saying through video. Hope you took time to read. I am blown away. I was hoping I wasn't only one.👍
Great video! Make more! I came for a simple answer and instead of getting my answer I actually learned something lol
Subbed!!
This was the best explanation I've heard. I learned a lot!
Wowwww.. very Clear very well said… Subbed done…
Bought a new hdd today and was confused af, thanks for this video my dude haha
Say I want to clone my current boot drive which is MBR to a bigger drive, can formatting the bigger drive to GPT before cloning it work?
having GPT for Boot and installing games in MBR partition affects gaming performance ?
Very well explained!
what is the best for 120 ssd new 🙂 gpt or mbr
MBR is an old partition type that can take max 4 partitions and only 2 TB size .
GPT can take max 128 partitions an unlimited size .
thumbs up
my local drive which where my o.s is installed is MBR, i want to convert it to GPT,
I tried it on windows installation by holding SHIFT+f10 then go cmd then disk, clean, convert GPT then it says that it was successful, but after re-installing windows 10, BUT WHEN I try to check it on my diskmanagement my local disc is mbr again,,
No special intro, no bullshit, no ads, just info. Thx kid. You saved me a lot of time.
DON'T FORGET TO UPDATE YOUR BIOS IF WANT TO USE EUFI TO BOOT GPT!
You are so cute hahahahaha, thank for these helpful information brother dear 🙂
Thanks a lot for the knowledge brother
Thanks exactly what I was looking for. FYI Windows Disk Mgr has an option to convert the drive.
How to covert it gpt without data lost?????????? Help……….
isn’t it scary that I have a new computer and everything is in mbr? I did not know before but I don’t want to change anymore, as I understand it, there is no difference for me if I do not have disk arrays. I don’t want to bother already and change to gpt it is not known why) all hdd and ssd less than 2 tb))
Thank You pewdiepie <3
Everything a tutorial/troubleshoot video is supposed to be. I was back to doing what i was doing by 1:35 in, with all the info i needed. Good vid.
awesome man!. Saludos desde Peru
Can i access files if i boot from OS in Gpt Ssd and files stored in Mbr HDD?-
Thanks for your answer at 3:11
When you say it has to boot BIOS or the other thing what does that even mean? Also all motherboards come with a BIOS, correct?
Fok…have ti reinstall windows with gpt…. Thanks btw.
nice work, selected GPT for my 4TB drive after the first few mins, big time saver.
Thanks man, i was confused if i install my new ssd with gpt then would my old mbr hdd will be defected or not?. I spent hours to right get the keyword i want but i couldn't find it.
great info thanks!!
any software to extend partition for gpt style?? plz suggest.
heard a lot before. learned a lot only today
lol i use a vm
Thank you so much for this info
I converted my drive into GPT, works fine for daily use. I'm using minitool partition software
Thanks man subscribed I honestly think you should do more of these you lay out the info simple
im using the same 512gb ssd as from 2013, moved several computers. reformatting and installing everything would be a pain. it's MBR
