Block Storage

Manage additional space with block storage on your VPS

Block storage is a convenient and flexible way of managing additional storage on your server. With our block storage VPS you'll be able to format, partition and manage volumes with familiar techniques and tools. Volumes are an independent resource and they function as generic block devices to enable you to treat attached volumes as locally connected devices. They're most useful when you require more storage space but you do not need the additional memory or processing power. To learn more about our storage server VPS, get in touch with our team today.

From personal files to database files: using your block storage VPS

Blocks can act as individual hard disks, which means they are excellent for storing a vast range of applications, files and databases. They can be used to house files for a database server and act as a target location for backups. Block storage is also ideal for uploading media directories from a web server and can be used as extra storage for personal file hosting platforms. It's important to remember that block storage transportation is also more efficient, more reliable and more flexible than file storage. You'll also benefit from better versatility as well as improved performance.

Block storage: it's both flexible and scalable

There's no need to worry about long-term contracts with us - you can scale up or scale down with ease, and you'll only pay for the block storage you need. You can also shrink or expand your block storage volumes without altering your cloud instance local disk. Ultimately, block storage is a great partner for cloud computing, especially if you're looking to incorporate the cloud into your organisation.

Why choose block storage over file storage?

File storage, which provides a central, highly-accessible location for your files, is often very simplistic, which can be its downfall. The more files you add to it, the more difficult it becomes to find the data and information you're searching for. Block storage, on the other hand, is more complex, but it's also more flexible and provides better performance. Ultimately, when performance is the deciding factor, block storage will always win.
