Rather than using a physical disk drive to store the system and user files for a guest operating system, VMware Server virtual machines use files (known as ''virtual disks'') located on the disk drives attached to the host system.
The ''Delete from disk'' option, on the other hand, both removes the disk from the configuration of the select virtual machine and also physically removes the ''.vmdk'' file from the datastore. As such the disk is no longer available and the space it used is released.
