Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 119

Frank, a cloud administrator in his company, needs to take backup of the OS disks of two Azure VMs that store business-critical data. Which type of Azure blob storage can he use for this purpose?

Answer options

• A. Append blob
• B. Medium blob
• C. Block blob
• D. Page blob

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Page blob, because it is specifically designed for scenarios that require random read and write operations, making it ideal for storing virtual hard disk (VHD) files used by Azure VMs. The other options, such as Block blob and Append blob, are better suited for different types of data, such as unstructured data and append-only scenarios, respectively.
