Hi Catalin,
I’m confused as to why you believe the question must be updated because AWS Backup now support EFS. Could you please elaborate on your reasoning?

Challenge 2 is the questions regarding the usage of the File-Gateway. He is discarding answer E because the says "the File-Gateway does not expose via iSCSI" as far as I can see that is wrong. The file-gateway certainly exposes itself via iSCSI and does not support efs
so I think E is the correct answer. What am I missing?
File Gateway can be mounted as NFS or SMB, but not via iSCSI. You can read about the differences here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/WhatIsStorageGateway.html
G Vossen, there are 3 type of storage available in Storage Gateway which is file, volume and tape. iSCSI only avaible for volume storage.
I believe the Backup support on NFS has nothing to do with the challenge question, regarding the filegateway it is true that it cannot be mounted as iSCSI, that would be a Volume Gateway.
I guess it is a matter of what options are shwon in the answers, if Volume gateway was mention we could argue that is a better option regarding performance
