The Block Storage service lets you add storage drives, called volumes to your Linodes. This lets you store more data without resizing your Linode to a larger plan. Use these operations to review the Block Storage volumes assigned to your Linodes.
Every API here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
One button, every client — Claude, Cursor, VS Code and the rest.

locks:
description: '__Beta__ A resource lock applied to the Block Storage volume. You can optionally [set up this lock](https://techdocs.akamai.com/linode-api/reference/post-resource-lock) to prevent you from inadvertently deleting the volume. Supported values here include:
- `cannot_delete`. The volume itself can''t be deleted. Any sub-resources assigned to it can be freely deleted. You need to unlock the volume by [deleting its lock](https://techdocs.akamai.com/linode-api/reference/delete-resource-lock) to delete the volume.
- `cannot_delete_with_subresources`. The volume and various sub-resources assigned to it can''t be deleted. For example, if a volume has a configuration profile interface assigned to it, this lock prevents you from deleting either of them. You need to unlock the resource (the volume) by deleting its lock. Then you can delete the volume and any of its sub-resources.
- **Empty**. The volume doesn''t have a resource lock configured. This is also empty when you clone a volume, because resource lock settings aren''t carried to the cloned volume.
