Add BlockStorage volume to my droplet for MySQL Database

Posted on September 21, 2020

Hi, I’m a bit confused about how BlockStorage works, I need more space only to save more data in one of my MySQL tables.
Can I just add a BlockStorage volume and it will be used automatically to save extra data in MySQL?
