Line 21:

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 0x01, 0x04, 0x06, 0x07, 0x0B, 0x0C, and 0x0E to partition type 0x42 on MBR partitioned disks.

Previously Linux used the same partition type GUID for basic data partition as Windows until a Linux specific Data Partition GUID <tt>0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4</tt> was defined.{{factCitation needed|date=January 2012}} See [[GUID Partition Table]].
