Amazing and unbelievable; HDD faster than SSD on WVD
Last week we did some low-level benchmarks using VDI Drones to see what the IO scores where for the different storage tiers; https://vdidrones.com/2021/02/27/a-closer-look-at-the-wvd-iops-values...

I have figured this out years ago as MSP and all services supports almost called me crazy when I showed real numbers.
Basically, Standard SSD and HDD is the same thing. The only difference is that Standard SSD guarantee latency and better SLA. Same story for premium, if you do not give money you won't get better throughput, just better latency and fancy bursting features. The reason Standard is outperforming SSD is because this cluster had probably less people on it when you did your test.
