# Manage Backup Storage

Cloudback allows you to set up a backup storage for your repositories. The backup storage defines where the backups should be stored. This page will guide you through the process of setting up a backup storage for your repositories.

## Setting Up a Backup Storage

Follow these steps to set up a backup storage for your repositories:

1. Go to the [Cloudback Dashboard](https://app.cloudback.it/).
2. Open the repository details page for the repository you want to set up a backup storage for.
3. In the **Settings** section, locate the `Storage` combobox and choose the storage you want to save the backups to:

![Repository backup storage](/files/h0AbgMJZccT9FKD4yVnS)

4. Click the **Save** button to save the changes.

You can update a storage for multiple repositories at once using the [Bulk Operations](/managing-backups/bulk-operations.md).

## Supported Storages

Cloudback supports the following storages:

* **Cloudback Managed Storages**: These are the storages managed by Cloudback. Learn more about [Cloudback Managed Storages](/storage-configuration/cloudback-managed-storages.md).
* **Customer Managed Storages**: These are the storages managed by you, and you can set up your own storage for your backups. Learn more about [Customer Managed Storages](/storage-configuration/customer-managed-storages.md).

When setting up a backup storage, you can choose from the list of Cloudback Managed Storages or set up your own Customer Managed Storage. Both types of storages are available in the Storage combobox.
