network bandwidth
II. The data stored in the network persistent disk is non-volatile.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
a) Only I
b) Only II
c) Both I and II
d) None of them are correct

Correct Answer: (b)


Detailed Solution: Network persistent disks are more cost-effective than local SSD. The data
stored in a network persistent disk can be retained even if the virtual machine is terminated and can
be used with some other virtual machine
