Sometimes the cost is too high if you need to store a lot of files. Also if you go for the standard SSD and your Virtual Machine will do a lot of write operations the cost can become higher than the same size in premium SSD disks so it's very important to decide on which SKU is the best for you Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure Disk Storage relies on encryption keys to protect data. These keys can be managed by Microsoft or by the user. However, there is a risk that the encrypted data may become unusable if the user loses the encryption key or its security is compromised.

Many disk types in Azure Disk Storage have maximum size limits. If reliability is needed beyond this limit, more disks or other storage options may be needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
