Explanation:

Box 1: General purpose v2 with Archive acce3ss tier for blobs

Archive – Optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and stored for at least 180 days with flexible latency requirements, on the order of hours.

Cool – Optimized for storing data that is infrequently accessed and stored for at least 30 days.

Hot – Optimized for storing data that is accessed frequently.

Box 2: Storage account resource lock

As an administrator, you can lock a subscription, resource group, or resource to prevent other users in your organization from accidentally deleting or modifying critical resources.

The lock overrides any permissions the user might have.

Note: You can set the lock level to CanNotDelete or ReadOnly. In the portal, the locks are called Delete and Read-only respectively.

✑ CanNotDelete means authorized users can still read and modify a resource, but they can’t delete the resource.

✑ ReadOnly means authorized users can read a resource, but they can’t delete or update the resource. Applying this lock is similar to restricting all authorized users to the permissions granted by the Reader role.
