## AI overview

Vercel Sandbox introduces Drives in private beta, providing persistent attachable storage that remains available across disposable sandbox lifecycles. Drives can preserve agent workspaces, repositories, dependencies, and build outputs, and can be managed through the beta SDK or CLI.

## Source excerpt

Vercel Sandbox now supports drives in private beta. Drives are persistent, attachable storage with a lifecycle independent from any sandbox. Create a drive once, then mount it at a configurable path when starting a sandbox. When the sandbox stops, the drive remains available to attach to a later sandbox. Install the beta SDK (@vercel/sandbox@beta) or beta CLI (sandbox@beta), then create and mount a drive: Sandbox Drives are useful for: Keeping agent workspaces across disposable sandboxes Retaining cloned repositories, dependencies, and build outputs Managing data independently from the sandbox lifecycle During the private beta, a drive can be mounted read-write by one sandbox at a time. Sandbox drives should not be used for production data while in private beta. Sign up here to join the waitlist, learn more in the docs, or read the complete guide. Read more
