Hey DigitalOcean,
I’ve been reading your tutorials for a while now and since you’ve been so helpful I decided to pay for a SSD cloud server with block storage. I uploaded my source for my file hosting site and everything works. However, what I want to do is when someone comes on my site and uploads their file I want the file to be stored on my block storage. I configured my volume but I’m confused on how to use my block storage for incoming files.
Thanks!

Hi @actavis You have several options.
I’ve probably missed other options, but in general you have a lot of options, so it depends on what you like the most (depending on your web app)
I have tried all options but not able to upload media on block storage. Getting an error Invalid path to upload image. Please help
