This is a kind of an identifier that you can give to a device. Since it is a universally unique identifier, the identification of the device is easy.

Label is another way to identify a device but it's not unique. Like in Microsoft Windows you can have more than one device with the same label.
3. Filesystem
It is the method for storing files in a computer system. Different operating systems use different types of file systems such as,
* EXT3/4 - Linux
* HFS/HFS+ - Mac
* NTFS - Windows

* Open up a terminal and issue this command without quotes "sudo blkid"
The output will be like this,
