You can use this to directly connect a:

- 19How does a differencing disk work?A differencing disk makes use of a parent-child relationship. The parent disk contains a sysprepped image. All changes are written to the differencing (child) disk.
No changes to the parent disk occur. - 20How does a dynamically expanding disk work?You specify a maximum size for the disk. The disk file only uses the space that it needs.
