A company plans to create a Hyper-V environment that will contain three virtual machines (VMs). A limited
amount of storage space is available to host the VMs. The VMs will be configured as follows:
You must maximize disk performance.
You need to recommend a storage solution.
Which type of virtual disk type should you configure for each VM?
A.
pass-through
B.
fixed
C dynamically expanding
C.
differencing
fixed or dynamic disk?

Answer is “B”
Fixed Size
This type allocates storage at VHD creation time. The size of a Fixed Size or Fixed VHD, as the name indicates, stays the same throughout the life of a disk. Since all available storage is allocated at creation time, a Fixed VHD offers a predictable and best performance on operations relevant to storage allocation and is recommended for production use.

Agreed, answer is B. Fixed.
While the scenario says you have a limited amount of storage, the more important comment is that you must maximize performance. Pass-through disks provide good performance as well but it requires additional hardware configuration which is not outlined in the scenarios so you cannot assume you have that available.

I have the same question where disk performance is not asked .. i would go for C then.
if perf. is added on the exam i will go for B
agree?
