You manage an Azure subscription with virtual machines (VMs) that are running in Standard mode.
You need to reduce the storage costs associated with the VMs.
What should you do?
A.
Locate and remove orphaned disks.
B.
Add the VMs to an affinity group.
C.
Change VMs to the Basic tier.
D.
Delete the VHD container.
Explanation:
Standard offers 50 GB of storage space, while Basic only gives 10 GB but it will save costs.

I’m going for A. “Locate and remove orphaned disks.” here.
Adam wrote a comment on it a year ago:
“The key working in this question is “storage costs” not “operational cost”. Changing from standard to basic has impact on disk performance (iops) but not the storage cost.
Storage costs are the same on all plans apart from premium which is SSDs.
Removing orphaned disk will reduce the amount of storage that is been used in your storage pool, resulting in paying less for storage.
Reducing the tier the VM is in will reduce operational costs not storage cost.
Correct answer is A. – Locate and remove orphaned disks.
Hope that helps explain the difference and how MS like to catch you out.”

for unmanaged disk, you only be charged for the size you used. i.e. If you claimed 50GB but only used 20GB, you only be charged for the cost of 20GB disk
