# Storage List

## What is Storage(Network Volume)?

**It is a storage space where you can store data or frequently used models created on Runyour AI and link them to other machines.**

After renting machine, you can access your existing data from the desired directory every time a new development environment is set up. This helps preserve data that might otherwise be lost when returning machine, so you can create a storage space for this purpose.\
\
If you do not create storage, only the basic storage capacity will be provided. If you need additional capacity beyond what is provided by default, you need to create new storage on the storage page. When using only the basic storage, data will be lost when the machine is returned.

* You can check your storage rental history by clicking the **"Usage History"** button at the top right of the page and navigating to <mark style="color:blue;">**`Usage History.`**</mark>
