You can attach multiple Block Storage volumes to the same droplet (up to 5 volumes).
Then you could attach another volume to your current droplet, and configure it as another device in Ubuntu, and then copy data with the regular cp command.
thnx @hansen
Actually i have an 2 droplet and both have an different different block storage so i want to copy one droplet block storage data to second droplet block storage.

Ahhh, then it’s much more simple. Keep everything as it is now. I would recommend that you go to the control panel and take a snapshot before copying data around.
You can use the command
scp, which creates a SSH tunnel and then copies data.
Login to the droplet you want to copy data from.scp -pr /path/from user@droplet-ip-address:/path/to/ #Example #scp -pr /volume-old/photos root@12.34.56.78:/volume-keep/media/

Actually i can’t able to login this droplet because it is under Ddos attack. But i have an snapshot of the block storage.

Uhm, okay, then detach the volume from the DDoS-droplet and then attach it to the working droplet, mount the volume in your OS, and then just use the
cpcommand.
