How to configure fstab inside virtualbox?

Support Virtualization
1

My main system is Manjaro on btrfs and fstab config here is pretty clear for me.
I have ssd option enabled and fstrim.timer enabled.

I wanted to run Kali Linux inside virtualbox but instead installation I wanted to try ready to use ova image.
I checked and in fstab there is:
errors=remount-ro

I already checked SSD Drive option in virtual machine settings but I’m not sure if I should edit fstab inside this vm.

For better drive performance or usage coul or should I change it for:
defaults,noatime,errors=remount-ro
?

You can change it any way you want same as on a real machine.
noatime certainly reduces writes, if you do not need/want to keep track of access times.
