Correct Answer:
Explanation/Reference:
* Box 1:
The EFI System partition is formatted using the FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32 file system.
* Box 2:
MSR is used to reserve space ahead of time for software components which will later allocate space by reducing the size of the MSR and creating a component specific partition. For example the conversion of a basic disk to a dynamic disk requires space for holding the dynamic disk database.
MSR does not contain any meaningful data itself.
Microsoft requires an MSR on every GPT disk, and recommends it to be created as the disk is initially partitioned. It should be located after the EFI System Partition (ESP) and any OEM service partitions, but it must be located before any primary partitions of bootable windows operating systems. Initial size of MSR is 32 MB on disks smaller than 16 GB, or 128 MB on other disks.
The MSR partition is not visible within Microsoft Windows Disk Management GUI-control utility but it is listed with Microsoft command line utility (diskpart.exe).
* Box 3: NTFS is the best choice for the Windows partition. Note:
* The GUID Partition Table (GPT) was introduced as part of the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) initiative. GPT provides a more flexible mechanism for partitioning disks than the older Master Boot Record (MBR) partitioning scheme that was common to PCs.
