MBRs are not present on non-partitioned media such as floppies, superfloppies or other storage devices configured to behave as such, nor are they necessarily present on drives used in non-PC platforms. If you restore the same disk signature, you dont need to re-create or edit the tasks created previously. For example, Acronis True Image creates scheduled tasks in accordance with the hard disk signature. A GPT can coexist with an MBR in order to provide some limited form of backward compatibility for older systems. Acronis program changes the signature by default during the recovery, this can lead to a discrepancy in functionality of several programs. Therefore, the MBR-based partitioning scheme is in the process of being superseded by the GUID Partition Table (GPT) scheme in new computers. Approaches to slightly raise this limit utilizing 32-bit arithmetic or 4096-byte sectors are not officially supported, as they fatally break compatibility with existing boot loaders, most MBR-compliant operating systems and associated system tools, and may cause serious data corruption when used outside of narrowly controlled system environments. The organization of the partition table in the MBR limits the maximum addressable storage space of a partitioned disk to 2 TiB (2 32 × 512 bytes). This MBR code is usually referred to as a boot loader. The MBR also contains executable code to function as a loader for the installed operating system-usually by passing control over to the loader's second stage, or in conjunction with each partition's volume boot record (VBR). The MBR holds the information on how the disc's sectors (aka “blocks”) are divided into partitions, each partition notionally containing a file system. First sector of a partitioned computer disk
