C is OK. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server (Amazon FSx) is a fully managed, highly available, and scalable file storage solution built on Windows Server that uses the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol. It allows for Microsoft Active Directory integration, data deduplication, and fully managed backups, among other critical enterprise features. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/storage/accessing-smb-file-shares-remotely-with-amazon-fsx-for-windows-file-server/
