A Storage File Data SMB Share Elevated Contributor has comprehensive access rights, which include the ability to read, write, delete, and modify files within Azure Storage file shares over the SMB (Server Message Block) protocol. This role is more than just a simple contributor; it carries the capability to manage file permissions through NTFS (New Technology File System) permission settings, thereby ensuring that users can control access to the files and directories they manage.

In addition, this role grants full control over the Azure file share itself. This means that the individual can perform all actions within the file share, including managing its properties and settings. This level of access is essential for scenarios where a user needs to perform comprehensive administrative tasks, including maintaining file security and managing file structure effectively.

The other options do not encompass the full range of capabilities associated with the Elevated Contributor role. For example, having only read access or basic write, delete, and read permissions does not suffice for tasks requiring full control or modification of NTFS permissions.
