Explanation
In VMware Horizon environments, linked clones are a common desktop provisioning method that use a parent snapshot plus delta disks, making them storage-efficient. Nutanix differentiates itself by being the only vendor whose storage replication supports linked clone replication - replicating both the base/parent disk and the delta disks to a DR site - enabling full disaster recovery of Horizon linked clone pools. Most other storage vendors can only replicate full clones. Options C and D are factually incorrect; block/rack awareness is a data protection feature for node failures, not a DR replication feature, and the node counts stated are inaccurate.
