Partition TableĪ disk partition is a logical division of the disk, into which a file system can be created in order to install an operating system (such as Windows or Linux), or store various types of files. The following describes the different sections of a valid MBR, which helps to clarify the importance of the MBR. The complete MBR is only a single physical sector in length (512 bytes), but is essential to creating or maintaining partitions on the disk or booting the computer. What is the MBR? The Master Boot Record (MBR) is a small, dedicated section at the beginning of the hard disk, located before any partitions on the disk, and structured to hold the boot information and partition layout for the entire disk.

If everyone understood the role played by this very small section of the disk, this practically unknown area would be treated very differently, namely regularly backed up in case disaster strikes.
