What is the primary difference between Amazon EBS and EC2 Instance Store?

EBS data is persistent even if the instance stops, whereas Instance Store data is lost
EBS is faster but more expensive
Instance Store supports encryption but EBS does not
EBS is physically attached to the machine, whereas Instance Store is network-attached
View Explanation

Yes, using the 'Modify Volume' console
Yes, if the instance is stopped
Only for Pro-level accounts
View Explanation
✓ Correct Answer: No, you must take a snapshot, copy the snapshot with encryption enabled, and then create a new volume from that snapshotExplanation:Encryption cannot be changed on a live volume. The snapshot-copy-restore path is the only way.
