Microsoft Azure Training 17 – Azure Virtual Machines – Part 4 – Azure VM Data disks (Exam 70-533)

This is the Part 4 of the Azure Virtual Machines session. In this session I deep dive into Data Disks (VHDs) in Azure. First there are discussions about Data Disks in general. Then I provide demo on creating new Data Disks and associating it with an existing VM. The most important demonstration of this session is uploading a data VHD from on-premise to Azure and then connecting the VHD with an existing VM in Azure to access the data.
