Which partition style allows for up to 128 partitions on a hard disk?

The correct answer is GPT (GUID Partition Table) because it has the capability to support a much larger number of partitions compared to older partition styles. Specifically, GPT allows for up to 128 partitions on a hard disk without the need for an extended partition, which was a limitation in the traditional MBR (Master Boot Record) style.

In contrast, the MBR partitioning scheme is limited to only four primary partitions, or three primary partitions and one extended partition that can contain multiple logical drives. The extended partition concept in its own right is not a partition style but rather a method for overcoming MBR's limitation on the number of partitions.

Logical Drive Partitioning is not a standalone partition style; rather, it refers to how partitions may be organized within an extended partition under the MBR scheme. Therefore, GPT stands out as the advanced option designed to accommodate modern storage needs, contributing to its use in newer systems and larger storage capacities.
