Selected Answer: D
The question is asking for storing VM images. These images are stored in Object Storage. You use volume storage to attach to the VMs as a form of hard drive, not to store the VM image.

Selected Answer: D
Virtual machine images are typically stored in object storage. Object storage is designed for handling large amounts of unstructured data—like VM images—and offers scalability, durability, and a flat namespace that makes managing these images straightforward. In many cloud environments, VM images (such as Amazon Machine Images in AWS) are stored in an object storage system (e.g., Amazon S3) until they are deployed. This contrasts with volume (block) storage, which is used for the running instances rather than for storing the image itself.

The typical cloud storage type used to house virtual machine images is C. Volume storage. Volume storage provides block-level storage that is well-suited for storing and managing virtual machine images.

Volume storage is the correct Answer, S3 is Object, cant store VM files there. Object is flat structured storage.
