### Ratio per storage volume
31
-
To allocate the impact of a specific storage volume, we apply the following RCP allocation rule:
32
28
33
-
- Attribution of the manufacturing impact to **VOLsto**: with a **factor of 3 to account for replication**.
34
-
We use this ratio in the rest of the calculations.
29
+
To allocate the impact of a Block Storage volume, we apply the unit resulting from the RCP allocation rule to all calculation steps, the `bls_ration`:
30
+
31
+
```
32
+
VOLsto/VolstoPool = bls_ratio
33
+
```
34
+
35
+
-**VOLsto** - represents the **reserved volume** per user. In Block Storage, your data is replicated three times on multiple nodes to guarantee availability, so the **VOLsto** is applied with factor of 3 to account for replication.
36
+
-**VolstoPool** - represents all the storage for Block Storage volumes on the server that hosts them (around 60%).

### Manufacturing impact

The manufacturing impact is attributed based on the servers hosting the storage:

Retrieval of **hardware specifications** of Block Storage servers → The only available data source today is the [Confluence BLOCK STORAGE page](https://confluence.internal.scaleway.com/display/BLOCK+STORAGE), which will need to be transcribed into a YML file (2 different types of HW currently). In this YML file, we indicate the available volume, which corresponds to 60% of the total volume (the rest being reserved for performance reasons).

To calculate the usage, we consider the French energy mix and the datacenter's PUE. In this example, they are O,056kgCo2e/kwh and 1,16, respectively. Which results in:
