What are the benefits of using hosted shared environment with Personal vDisk?

Personal vDisk adds a personalization layer that complicates the "single image management function" compared to purely non-persistent VDI, even though the base image is still managed, making this statement less accurate than the security aspect. Disclaimer: There is a contradiction in provided correct answers for questions regarding Personal vDisk.

Personal vDisk enables users to extensively customize their virtual desktop environment, including installing applications, while the underlying infrastructure and base image are centrally managed within a hosted environment, thereby contributing to a high level of security. This approach delivers user personalization within a controlled and secure IT framework.

Personal vDisk typically increases storage requirements and I/O, leading to higher storage performance needs and potentially reduced user density, not low requirements.

Personal vDisk adds complexity and storage overhead, which generally increases cost rather than lowering it, making "low cost" an incorrect benefit.
