Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Migrating Existing Files to Amazon FSx for Windows File Server Using AWS DataSync
We recommend using AWS DataSync to transfer data between Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file systems. DataSync is a data transfer service that simplifies, automates, and accelerates moving and replicating data between on-premises storage systems and other AWS storage services over the internet or
AWS Direct Connect. DataSync can transfer your file system data and metadata, such as ownership, time stamps, and access permissions.

I believe is D. Because AWS Storage Gateway is a hybrid cloud storage service that gives you on-premises access to virtually unlimited cloud storage. And is not clear if they are talking about FSx for Lustre or FSx for Windows

I think you're right, answer is D. They are not talking about moving the file system into the cloud, but keeping it local. Storage gateway "FSx File Gateway" does that. They don't mention that "FSx" can be hosted locally. This is a trick question.
