Most hard disk drives released after 1996 implement logical block addressing.
PC DOS 7.1 added support for Logical Block Addressing ( LBA ) and FAT32 partitions.
Due to the limits of CHS addressing, a transition was made to using LBA or logical block addressing.
It supports multiple executable formats and is geometry-translation independent, including support for logical block addressing ( LBA ).
:The LBA refers to logical block addressing, which replaces the older cylinder-head-sector style of accessing the hard drives.
Like modern MBRs, GPTs use logical block addressing ( LBA ) in place of the historical cylinder-head-sector ( CHS ) addressing.
The maximum utilizable cache size on the SSD is 64 GB . Caching is done at the logical block addressing ( LBA ) level, not the file level.
It uses 64-bit logical block addressing ( LBA ) which allows addressing up to 8 PiB respectively, assuming a 512-byte sector / block size ).
According to Microsoft, the basic data partition is the equivalent to master boot record ( MBR ) partition types 0x0E ( FAT16 with logical block addressing ) types as well.
For a later BIOS, LILO can use 32-bit " logical block addressing " ( LBA ) to access the entire capacity of the hard disks the BIOS has access to.
