How to Use Block Storage with Your Linode Expand Your Server’s Storage Capacity

Linode’s Block Storage service provides a method of adding additional storage drives to Compute Instances, enabling you to store more data without resizing your Compute Instance to a larger plan. These storage drives, called Volumes, can be formatted with any Linux-compatible file system and attached and mounted to a Compute Instance. In this video, we’ll go over formatting, mounting, resizing, and other aspects of working with Block Storage on Linode.
