In [[Microsoft]] [[operating system]]s, when using [[Logical Disk Manager#Basic and dynamic disks and volumes|basic disk]] partitioned with [[GUID Partition Table]] (GPT) layout, a '''basic data partition''' ('''BDP''') is any [[partition (computing)|partition]] identified with [[Globally Unique Identifier]] (GUID) of <tt>{{mono|EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7</tt>}}.<ref name=GPTFAQ>{{cite web|url=http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/GPT_FAQ.mspx|work=Windows and GPT FAQ|title=Windows GPT Implementation}}</ref>

According to Microsoft, the basic data partition is the equivalent to [[master boot record]] (MBR) partition types <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_06hPID 06h|0x06]]</tt>,}} <tt>([[partition type#PID_07h|0x07FAT16B]]</tt>), and <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_0BhPID 07h|0x0B0x07]]</tt>}} ([[FAT16]], [[NTFS]], or [[FAT32exFAT]]), in the traditionaland {{mono|[[MasterPartition Boottype#PID Record0Bh|MBR partition0x0B]]}} table([[FAT32]]).<ref name=GPTFAQ /> In practice, it is equivalent to <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_01hPID 01h|0x01]]</tt>}} ([[FAT12]]), <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_04hPID 04h|0x04]]</tt>}} ([[FAT16]]), <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_0ChPID 0Ch|0x0C]]</tt>}} (FAT32 with [[logical block addressing]]), and <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_0EhPID 0Eh|0x0E]]</tt>}} (variousFAT16 with olderlogical FATblock partitionsaddressing) types as well.

In the GPT scheme, BDPs are the only partition types which [[Windows XP]] 64-bit can mount and normally assign drive letters.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServer/en/Library/ca099518-dde5-4eac-a1f1-38eff6e3e5091033.mspx|work=Microsoft TechNet|title=DiskPart documentation}}</ref>

A Basicbasic Datadata Partitionpartition can be formatted with any [[filesystemfile system]] format, although most commonly BDPs are formatted with the NTFS, FAT32exFAT, or NTFSFAT32 filesystemfile formatssystems. To programaticallyprogrammatically determine which filesystemfile formatsystem a BDP contains, Microsoft specifies that one should inspect the [[BIOS Parameter Block]] that is contained in the BDP's [[Volume Boot Record]].

According to Microsoft, the basic data partition is the equivalent to partition types <tt>[[partition type#PID_06h|0x06]]</tt>, <tt>[[partition type#PID_07h|0x07]]</tt>, and <tt>[[partition type#PID_0Bh|0x0B]]</tt> ([[FAT16]], [[NTFS]], [[FAT32]]) in the traditional [[Master Boot Record|MBR partition table]].<ref name=GPTFAQ /> In practice it is equivalent to <tt>[[partition type#PID_01h|0x01]]</tt>, <tt>[[partition type#PID_04h|0x04]]</tt>, <tt>[[partition type#PID_0Ch|0x0C]]</tt>, and <tt>[[partition type#PID_0Eh|0x0E]]</tt> (various older FAT partitions) types as well.

When a Microsoft operating system converts a GPT-partitioned [[basic disk]] to a [[dynamic disk]], all BDPs are combined and converted to a single [[Logical Disk Manager]] data partition identified with GUID <tt>{{mono|AF9B60A0-1431-4F62-BC68-3311714A69AD</tt>}}. This is analogous to the conversion from partition types <tt>{{mono|0x01</tt>}}, <tt>{{mono|0x04</tt>}}, <tt>{{mono|0x06</tt>}}, <tt>{{mono|0x07</tt>}}, <tt>{{mono|0x0B</tt>}}, <tt>{{mono|0x0C</tt>}}, and <tt>{{mono|0x0E</tt>}} to partition type <tt>{{mono|[[partitionPartition type#PID_42hPID 42h|0x42]]</tt>}} on MBR partitioned disks.

A Basic Data Partition can be formatted with any [[filesystem]] format, although most commonly BDPs are formatted with the FAT32 or NTFS filesystem formats. To programatically determine which filesystem format a BDP contains, Microsoft specifies that one should inspect the [[BIOS Parameter Block]] that is contained in the BDP's [[Volume Boot Record]].

Linux used the same partition type GUID for basic data partition as Windows prior to introduction of a Linux specific Data Partition GUID {{mono|0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4}}.<ref name="RodSmithMLpost">{{cite mailing list|last=Smith|first=Rod|title=Need for a Unique Linux GPT GUID Type Code|mailing-list=bug-parted|date=June 23, 2011|url=http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-parted/2011-06/msg00026.html |via=lists.gnu.org |access-date=April 10, 2013}}</ref>

When a Microsoft operating system converts a GPT-partitioned [[basic disk]] to a [[dynamic disk]], all BDPs are combined and converted to a single [[Logical Disk Manager]] data partition identified with GUID <tt>AF9B60A0-1431-4F62-BC68-3311714A69AD</tt>. This is analogous to the conversion from partition types <tt>0x01</tt>, <tt>0x04</tt>, <tt>0x06</tt>, <tt>0x07</tt>, <tt>0x0B</tt>, <tt>0x0C</tt>, and <tt>0x0E</tt> to partition type <tt>[[partition type#PID_42h|0x42]]</tt> on MBR partitioned disks.

Linux typically uses the same partition type GUID for basic data partition as Windows. However, a Linux specific Data Partition GUID <tt>0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4</tt> has been proposed.{{Citation needed|date=January 2012}} See [[GUID Partition Table]].
