✓ Correct answer
- SSD Azure Files supports LRS/ZRS; plan a separate supported regional recovery design
Keep media and recovery requirements explicit. SSD's local/zone redundancy choices do not supply a native geo-redundant SSD share. Option explanations: A. SSD Azure Files supports LRS/ZRS; plan a separate supported regional recovery design: Geo-redundant Azure Files choices are HDD options, so the SSD requirement needs another recovery approach. B. GRS is available for every SSD profile account: That contradicts the supported Azure Files media/redundancy combinations. C. ZRS alone guarantees recovery after loss of the whole region: Zone replication does not independently provide regional-outage recovery. D. A readable RA-GZRS secondary SMB share automatically solves it: SSD does not support this geo option, and Azure Files does not expose RA secondary-share reads.
