Two major features have been injected in GParted 0.22.0. The first one, is read and write support for unpartitioned whole disk drives, which means that the software will be able to recognize and format disk drives that don’t have a partition table. The second feature brings read and write support for GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition names, which means that users will now be able to set and view names of their GPT partitions.
