## Important information
28

29

Since there are different types of volumes for Database Instances, make sure you are aware of the following information before changing the volume type:
30
+
31
+
- When autobackup is enabled for your local or Block volumes, regular quota limitations for backups and snapshots do not apply. Refer to the [Managed Databases FAQ page](/managed-databases-for-postgresql-and-mysql/faq/#why-is-my-number-of-active-backupssnapshots-exceeding-the-quota) for more information.
32
+
- When switching from a local volume to a Block volume, and if [Autobackup](/managed-databases-for-postgresql-and-mysql/how-to/enable-autobackup/) is enabled, be aware that the snapshot type will change. Local volumes use logical backups, whereas Block Storage employs snapshots. Both types are priced at €0.03 per GB per month, but their distinct backup methods affect storage space differently, influencing the final monthly cost based on your usage.
33
+
- Disk size cannot be reduced. Therefore, when switching from local to Block, the volume size remains the same by default.
34
+
- When switching from a Block to a local volume, make sure to select a node with a local Storage with size equal or greater than your current Block Storage. If you choose a Database Instance type with a local volume larger than your current block volume, you will be billed for the full capacity of the Database Instance.
35

## The volume changing process

57
+
During the process:
58
+
59
+
- The Database Instance will display the `initializing` status, but remains available available.
60
+
- Changing the volume type can take a while, depending on the amount of data and the node type of the Database Instance. Data is synchronized between nodes in live, which means you can continue performing write operations.
61
+
<Messagetype="tip">
62
+
- Avoid performing too many write operations during the data synchronization.
63
+
- Delay batch or scheduled scripts if possible.
64
+
</Message>
65
+
- When all the data is synchronized, a switchover is performed between nodes of the cluster. This means that the database will be unavailable few dozen of seconds during at this time.
