Virtual machine size DS3 (under older generation sizes) Azure Portal (when deploying VM) shows that DS3 supports up to 16 data disks / up to 12800 IOPS - thats fine, But what I am interested in is it's local/temp storage 28 GB D: drive Documentation shows that this local/temp drive is SSD, but what I can't seem to find is information on how many IOPS this drive can handle ? More specifically, if my TempDB has requirement of IOPS up to 1900, can D: drive on DS3 VM handle that requirement ? From this source https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/sizes-previous-gen I can guess that D: is 3200 IOPS but not sure I understand it correctly... D-Series Azure VM
