- |**Storage Account**|Select a storage account to provide blob storage of the media content from your Media Services account. You can select an existing storage account in the same geographic region as your Media Services account, or you can create a new storage account. A new storage account is created in the same region. The rules for storage account names are the same as for Media Services accounts.<br/><br/>You must have one **Primary** storage account and you can have any number of **Secondary** storage accounts associated with your Media Services account. You can use the Azure portal to add secondary storage accounts. For more information, see [Azure Storage accounts with Azure Media Services accounts](storage-account-concept.md).<br/><br/>**NOTE:** The Media Services account and all associated storage accounts must be in the same Azure subscription. It is strongly recommended to use storage accounts in the same location as the Media Services account to avoid additional latency and data egress costs.|
