In the larger G-Series VM sizes (G4 and G5) we have SSD-backed ephemeral disks that are larger than 2TB, and so they look a little different; namely they now use a GPT partition table and they also have two partitions:

Model: Msft Virtual Disk (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 6597GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk
Flags:
