A. B. C. D.A.
The best option to support an 8TB hard drive with one partition would be GPT (GUID Partition Table).
GPT is a newer partitioning scheme that supports larger hard drives and allows for more partitions than the older MBR (Master Boot Record) partitioning scheme. GPT also includes a backup partition table at the end of the disk, which makes it more resilient to corruption or damage.
FAT16 and FAT32 are file systems, not partitioning schemes, and they have limitations on the maximum size of a single partition. FAT16 can only support a maximum partition size of 2GB, while FAT32 can support up to 32GB. Therefore, they are not suitable for an 8TB hard drive with one partition.
EFS (Encrypting File System) is a feature of Windows that provides encryption of files on NTFS partitions. It does not affect partitioning and has no impact on the maximum partition size.
In conclusion, GPT is the most appropriate option for supporting an 8TB hard drive with one partition.
