Create a volume

Block Storage provides persistent volumes you can attach to any IBEE Cloud server. Volumes persist independently of servers — data is retained even if the server is deleted.

Before you begin

  • An active IBEE Cloud project with a verified account (Verify your account)
  • KYC verification completed — Block Storage requires full account verification

If your account shows a Limited Access banner, complete KYC verification to unlock Full Access to Block Storage.
