VHD (Virtual Hard Disk)

A Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) is a file that acts like a physical hard drive within a computer. It contains storage space for files, programs, and operating systems, allowing multiple VHDs to be used on a single machine. This technology enables users to create, manage, and run virtual computers without needing additional physical hardware. VHDs are useful for testing, backup, or running different operating systems securely, as they can be easily moved, duplicated, or deleted. Essentially, a VHD is a digital container that mimics a real hard drive inside your computer.
