Where should you recommend placing the virtual hard disk (VHD)?

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains four
servers on a test network. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.

Server1 uses the storage shown in the following table.

You perform the following tasks:
On Server2, you create an advanced SMB share named Share2A and an applications SMB share
named Share2B.
On Server3, you create an advanced SMB share named Share3.
On Server4, you create an applications SMB share named Share4.
You add Server3 and Server4 to a new failover cluster named Clus1.
On Clus1, you configure the File Server for general use role, you create a quick SMB share named
Share5A, and then you create an applications SMB share named Share5B.
You plan to create a failover cluster of two virtual machines hosted on Server1. The clustered virtual
machines will use shared .vhdx files.
You need to recommend a location to store the shared .vhdx files.

agreed Glenn.

You can’t share VHDX on a general file server cluster share.

\\server4\share4 is my final answer

Look below this. It will help to understand.

1 – Quick Choose this option if you need to create a general-purpose SMB share for file sharing. This option enables caching of the share by default and allows you to enable access-based enumeration and to encrypt data access if desired. You can also enable BranchCache on the share if the BranchCache feature is installed on the server.
2 – Advanced Choose this option if you will need to configure quotas on your share or implement file classification. This option also enables caching of the share by default and allows you to enable access-based enumeration and to encrypt data access if desired. You can also enable BranchCache on the share if the BranchCache feature is installed on the server.
3 – Applications Choose this option if the share will be used by Hyper-V hosts for shared storage, by a database application, and for other server applications. This option allows you to encrypt data access if desired, but you cannot enable caching or enable access-based enumeration on the share.
