### Temporary disk

Most VMs contain a temporary disk, which is not a managed disk. The temporary disk provides short-term storage for applications and processes, and is intended to only store data such as page files, swap files, or SQL Server tempdb. Data on the temporary disk may be lost during a [maintenance event](./understand-vm-reboots.md) or when you [redeploy a VM](/troubleshoot/azure/virtual-machines/redeploy-to-new-node-windows?toc=%2fazure%2fvirtual-machines%2fwindows%2ftoc.json). During a successful standard reboot of the VM, data on the temporary disk will persist. For more information about VMs without temporary disks, see [Azure VM sizes with no local temporary disk](azure-vms-no-temp-disk.yml).

On Azure Linux VMs, the temporary disk is typically /dev/sdb and on Windows VMs the temporary disk is D: by default. The temporary disk is not encrypted unless (for server side encryption) you enable encryption at host or (for Azure Disk Encryption) with the [VolumeType parameter set to All on Windows](./windows/disk-encryption-windows.md#enable-encryption-on-a-newly-added-data-disk) or [EncryptFormatAll on Linux](./linux/disk-encryption-linux.md#use-encryptformatall-feature-for-data-disks-on-linux-vms).
