The usage of these features depend on you are attempting to do with your loaded data.

Drop Table is used to delete table from your data model.

Resident Load is used to load data from an existing table into a new table.

Maybe some of QlikView's free online training session can be helpful for you to understand the principles further;

After making use of the Resident QVD we can drop it because already we are using desired field in other table by making resident.

That will take space in our script and will create Synthetic Key as well to make our data model improper.
