Hello friends,
I have a VM with Premium SSD as shown in the portal picture below.
When I access the VM and look at the Process Manager, it shows HDD.

What do I miss?

    Hello @Michael Shparber ,
    Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A platform.
    Since it is a Virtualized VM , it might show as HDD on OS level which is by design. Basically the OS which runs in the VM is called "Guest OS" . This Guest OS will have limited visibility in the Azure Infrastructure.

    You can also test it in a local laptop which has Hypervisor capability , create a Virtual VM - It will show you the same.

    Regards,
    Shiva.
