# Partition
The partition layout is a bit different on the first part. We prefere GPT every time where is possible. With SoCs they don't support GPT, we can use the hyprid GPT. More about this on [development](development.mnd) documentation.
The partition layout is a bit different than for regular setups. We prefer GPT, if possible. With SoCs which don't support GPT, we use the hybrid GPT. For more details about this topic, please refer to the [development](development.mnd) documentation.
The system is designed to have less as possible writes on the system. Which means we have basicly just writes on the OTA update and pretty small (5-6 times per week) on the overlay part. The Data partition have real I/O which is possible to offload into a different drive.

The data partation is the only partition with real I/O. It will be expanded automatic on boot time to the full size of the disk.
The data partition is the only partition with real I/O. It will be expanded automatic on boot time to the full size of the disk.
This partition can be offloaded to a different drive with the utility:
```sh
$ datactl move /dev/xxx
```
On next boot, the partition will be moved to the new drive. The drive need to be bigger as the old one and we own the full new drive.
