  2. ext4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

    ext4 (fourth extended filesystem) is a journaling file system for Linux, developed as the successor to ext3.. ext4 was initially a series of backward-compatible extensions to ext3, many of them originally developed by Cluster File Systems for the Lustre file system between 2003 and 2006, meant to extend storage limits and add other performance improvements.

  3. Comparison of file systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems

    While storage devices usually have their size expressed in powers of 10 (for instance a 1 TB Solid State Drive will contain at least 1,000,000,000,000 (10 12, 1000 4) bytes), filesystem limits are invariably powers of 2, so usually expressed with IEC prefixes.

  4. ext2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2

    The reason for some limits of ext2 are the file format of the data and the operating system's kernel. Mostly these factors will be determined once when the file system is built. They depend on the block size and the ratio of the number of blocks and inodes. [citation needed] In Linux the block size is limited by the architecture page size.

  5. XFS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS

    XFS is a 64-bit file system [24] and supports a maximum file system size of 8 exbibytes minus one byte (2 63 − 1 bytes), but limitations imposed by the host operating system can decrease this limit. 32-bit Linux systems limit the size of both the file and file system to 16 tebibytes.

  6. GUID Partition Table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

    The layout of a disk with the GUID Partition Table. In this example, each logical block is 512 bytes in size and each entry has 128 bytes. The corresponding partition entries are assumed to be located in LBA 2–33. Negative LBA addresses indicate a position from the end of the volume, with −1 being the last addressable block.

  7. Disk partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning

    The disk stores the information about the partitions' locations and sizes in an area known as the partition table that the operating system reads before any other part of the disk. Each partition then appears to the operating system as a distinct "logical" disk that uses part of the actual disk.

  8. F2FS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F2FS

    By default, section and zone sizes are set to the same size, but users can easily modify the size with mkfs. F2FS splits the entire volume into six areas, and all except the superblock area consist of multiple segments as described below. Superblock (SB) The SB is located at the beginning of the partition.
