Suggested Answer:

Box 1: true -
enableAcceleratedNetworking: If the network interface is accelerated networking enabled.
To further reduce network latency between Azure VMs, we [Micorosoft] recommend that you choose Azure Accelerated Networking. Use it when you deploy Azure
VMs for an SAP workload, especially for the SAP application layer and the SAP DBMS layer.

Box 2: true -
Write Accelerator should be used for the volumes that contain the transaction log or redo logs of a DBMS. It is not recommended to use Write Accelerator for the data volumes of a DBMS as the feature has been optimized to be used against log disks.

True, none Write Accelerator should be used for the volumes that contain the transaction log or redo logs of a DBMS. It is not recommended to use Write Accelerator for the data volumes of a DBMS as the feature has been optimized to be used against log disks.
