It's D. Text and Link below: "Before you create an SMB file share, make sure that you configure SMB security settings for your file gateway. You also configure either Microsoft Active Directory (AD) or guest access for authentication." https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/CreatingAnSMBFileShare.html

Option D is correct, as Storage Gateway has a Hardware appliance, that can be attached on premises for virtualization. https://aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/hardware-appliance/
