If they are the same, then please use the term 'image'.
As I said - no technical problem doing that, however in the engine we use the term "Disk" and the current name of the relevant VMs sub-tab is "Disks" and the name of the new main tab would be "Disks" (or "Virtual Disks"), etc. - so it will be strange to call the feature "floating image" when "floating" is going to be column in a GUI grid titled "Disks". I assume that you can also find explanations of why using the term "Disk" is confusing and "Image" is better; I am just genuinely not sure what is less confusing. This is inconsistency I agree, but I think that from the User perspective we should stick with either Disk or Drive. In any OS of a Server/Desktop the term rather Disk or Drives.
I'd go with what the REST API calls them right now, as changing it would be the painful part.
