Which vSphere 6.x feature will allow an organization to utilize native snapshots?

Virtual Volumes (vVols) enable native snapshots by delegating snapshot operations directly to the underlying storage array rather than relying on VMware's software-based snapshot mechanism. With vVols, each VM object is stored as a native array object, allowing the array to use its own hardware-accelerated snapshot capabilities.

Virtual SAN (vSAN) is a software-defined storage solution using local disks; it does not use native array snapshots but relies on vSphere-level snapshot mechanisms.

VMFS3 is a legacy VMware file system format that does not support native array snapshots - it stores VMs in flat files on traditional datastores.

VMFS5 is an updated VMware file system but still stores VMs as files on datastores, meaning snapshots are managed by vSphere software rather than the storage array natively.
