 ## Performance
 NFS Azure file shares are only offered on premium file shares, which store data on solid-state drives (SSD). The IOPS and throughput of NFS shares scale with the provisioned capacity. See the [provisioned model](understanding-billing.md#provisioned-model) section of the **Understanding billing** article to understand the formulas for IOPS, IO bursting, and throughput. The average IO latencies are low-single-digit-millisecond for small IO size, while average metadata latencies are high-single-digit-millisecond. Metadata heavy operations such as untar and workloads like WordPress may face additional latencies due to the high number of open and close operations.

 1. Once the file share is created, select the share and select **Connect from Linux**.
 1. Enter the mount path you'd like to use, then copy the script.
 1. Connect to your client and use the provided mounting script.
