Frequently asked questions
How much does block storage cost per GB?
Block storage is billed per GB-month of provisioned volume, shown in the $/GB-mo column. You pay for the size you allocate, not just what you use, so right-size your volumes.
What do IOPS cost for block storage?
Higher-performance volumes charge for provisioned IOPS on top of capacity. Where a provider prices IOPS separately it is shown in the table; baseline SSD tiers usually bundle enough IOPS for general workloads.
What volume types are available?
Common types are SSD, NVMe, and HDD, trading performance for price. The Type column shows what each plan offers; pick NVMe for databases and busy apps, HDD or standard SSD for bulk or cold data.
What is the cheapest block storage?
Sort by the $/GB-mo rate for the volume type you need. For throughput-bound work also weigh IOPS pricing, since a cheap per-GB rate with expensive IOPS can cost more overall.
How is block storage different from object storage?
Block storage is a virtual disk you attach to one server and format like a local drive; object storage is an API-accessed file store that scales infinitely. Use block for databases and boot disks, object for backups and media.
Can I attach block storage to any server?
Block volumes attach to a compute instance in the same region, usually one server at a time. Match the volume's region to your VPS or bare-metal server when planning capacity.
