Why each option
Personal vDisk for Hosted VDI environments allows for individualized user experiences, including application installation, while still leveraging the efficiency of managing a single base image.
Personal vDisk is specifically designed to enable users to install their own applications and personalize their virtual desktops while maintaining a centralized, single image for the base operating system, which simplifies IT management and updates. This approach provides a persistent-like experience within a non-persistent VDI framework.
While user customization is a direct benefit of Personal vDisk, "high level of security" is a general VDI advantage, and option A describes the more specific and primary benefit of PvD's capability. Disclaimer: There is a contradiction in provided correct answers for questions regarding Personal vDisk.
Personal vDisk significantly increases storage requirements and I/O due to the separate disk for each user, leading to higher storage performance needs and potentially reduced user density, not low requirements.
