Create a network drive

You can create a maximum of three network disks by default during beta testing. If you need more, file a ticket.

  1. In control panels go to Servers and hardware → Network disks and storage.

  2. Open the tab Network disks.

  3. Click Create a network drive.

  4. Select the location of the disk — accessibility zone. The network disk must be located in the same availability zone as the server to which it will be connected. During beta testing, the network drive can only be connected to a server in the MSK-1 pool.

  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 throughput values. See table for details Network disk limits.

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

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

  8. Optional: enter a comment. The maximum length of a comment is 256 characters.

  9. Click Create a disk.
