All Colab Enterprise runtimes are automatically configured with a 100 GiB boot disk in addition to the disk specified in the runtime template. Starting July 16, 2024, the boot disk of a newly created Colab Enterprise runtime automatically defaults to an SSD Persistent Disk. Previously, the boot disk default was a Standard Persistent Disk.
Because of this change, default boot disks of Colab Enterprise runtimes are billed as SSD Persistent Disks instead of Standard Persistent Disks. For more information, see Colab Enterprise pricing.
