Last update:

  1. In the Control Panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Dedicated Servers.

  2. Go to network volumes and Storage → network volumes tab.

  3. Click Create network volume.

  4. Select Disk Location - Availability Zone. The network volume must be located in the same availability zone as the server to which it will be connected.

  5. Select the type of disk:

    • Basic HDD - for storing large amounts of data that does not need to be read or rewritten frequently;
    • Fast SSD - for operations that require high read and write speeds.

    The disks differ in read/write speeds and bandwidth values. See the network volume Limits table for details.

  6. Specify the disk size in GB or TB. After creating a network volume, you can only increase the size of the network volume. You cannot decrease the size of the network volume.

  7. Enter a new disk name or leave the default name.

  8. Optional: enter a comment.

  9. Click Create Disk.
