Patients in the early stages of pleural mesothelioma do not exhibit many symptoms. 1  Those that do show are not specific to the disease. Mesothelioma symptoms common in the early stages are: 2  Shortness of breath (dyspnea) 3  Chest pain. 4  Persistent coughing. 5  Pleural effusions (fluid buildup)
A GPT disk offers these benefits: 1  Allows up to 128 primary partitions. 2  Master Boot Record (MBR) disks can support up to four primary partitions and an additional 124 partitions inside extended partitions. 3  Allows a much larger partition size--greater than 2 terabytes (TB), which is the limit for MBR disks.
A 32 bit version of windows generally will only see the protective MBR on a GPT disk. Or course, that being said, I have seen external drive manufacturers combining a GPT loader in with their drives which will allow Windows XP x86 I/O on a drive greater than 2TB, this may be the case in your situation. The GPT loader I have come across is called Paragon GPT loader.
