I asked this question and received this answer.. However, I don't understand how to do the answer so I need clarification and more explanation

"I want to make 20 Virtual Computers and I want to download same files on them, however it will take too long time to get on each one of them and download the same files. Is there anyway I can have the files already downloaded on the other Virtual machines that I will create so I don't have to re-download on each single one?"

Answer was!

The Data Disk I haven't actually done this myself, so some independent work will be required. Nutshell: You can upload an arbitrary .vhd to the cloud and create a data disk out of it, so on a local VM add a new static disk (Azure doesn't import dynamic vhds last I checked) and download everything you want to that VHD. Then upload that VHD to your storage and print out a data disk for every VM from the disk image that you uploaded. Done!

I don't know how to do that answer, can someone explain?
