從「Linode Block Storage (Fremont beta)」這邊可以看到 Linode 推出 Block Storage 了,是 SSD-based,跟 Amazon EBS 的 gp2 也是 SSD-based 相同。
計價方式,價錢也相同,沒有 I/O fee:
They're affordable - $0.10 per GB (free during the beta) and no usage fees.
目前能從 1GB 開到 1TB:
How big of a Volume can I create?
Between 1 GB and 1024 GB for now. After the beta, the max volume size may be larger.
單台可以掛 8 個:
How many Volumes can I attach to a Linode at the same time?
Up to 8.
然後 2018 開始收費:
The beta is free through 2017. January 1, 2018 the meter starts running.
有了 Block Storage 後有些事情就比較好搭出來了,也不會受限於 local disk 的空間大小。
