== Primary Partition or Logical? ==
Legacy BIOS has a limitation of 4 primary partitions and 2.2 TB per drive.
With UEFI, this limitation is now 128 primary partitions and 8 ZB (source: Wikipedia).
So you can choose either primary or logic partitions, UEFI will deal with them anyway. On my laptop, I have chosen primary partitions, it sounds proper than logic partitions on the same primary partition.

Primary Partition or Logical?

Legacy BIOS has a limitation of 4 primary partitions and 2.2 TB per drive.

With UEFI, this limitation is now 128 primary partitions and 8 ZB (source: Wikipedia).

So you can choose either primary or logic partitions, UEFI will deal with them anyway. On my laptop, I have chosen primary partitions, it sounds proper than logic partitions on the same primary partition.
