Explanation:

When an external stage is dropped in Snowflake, the reference to the external storage location is removed, but the actual files within the external storage (like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure) are not deleted. This means that the data remains intact in the external storage location, and only the stage object in Snowflake is removed.

On the other hand, when an internal stage is dropped, any files that were uploaded to the stage are deleted along with the stage itself. These files are not recoverable once the internal stage is dropped, as they are permanently removed from Snowflake's storage.
