VHDX

VHDX is a virtual hard disk format used by Windows Hyper-V to store the data of virtual machines. Think of it as a digital “storage container” that simulates a physical hard drive. VHDX offers advantages like larger storage capacity (up to 64 terabytes), improved performance, and better protection against data corruption, especially during power failures. It's designed to efficiently manage large data files and support snapshots, making it ideal for running multiple virtual environments on a single physical server securely and reliably.
