If you are really interested in doing this you could look [here](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/virtual_pc_guy/2012/10/03/using-powershell-to-convert-a-vhd-to-a-vhdx/)\r\n\r\nHow the script works is that it downloads the compressed imaged VHD from the coreos website. The script then decompresses it and makes a copy for every instance requested. It then expands the size of the VHD for each instance to make it more useable. The script then creates VHDX drives with the cloud-configs and attaches them to the instance also.\r\n\r\nTo convert to VHDX would require either to get a VHDX from coreos, or convert the VHD from coreos to VHDX."}}
