Explanation

Snapshot copies minimize disk consumption by preserving individual blocks rather than whole files.

When this happens, the original file blocks are still preserved as part of one or more Snapshot copies. https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1368826/html/GUID-CF9E77A6-BDD9-4138-A281- FC0E7BEA4C6D.html
