45 -The first type available to you is Volume. With this option you create one or more folders on docker that is relevant for that runtime to read and/or write **persistent** data. To configure this type you need to link the runtime volume to a machine volume that you can create within the same pop-up. This means that you can re-use a "Machine volume" over multiple runtimes (i.e. containers).

65 -An alternative option to read and write **persistent** data is to use the "Bind mount" option avaiable. In general we advice to use the "Volume" option because they have better performance and bind mounts are dependent on the directory structure and OS of the host machine. Having said that not all external systems can adapt to this that easily. That is why the "Bind mount" option can be of interest in your use case.

67 -To configure a "Bind mount" you need to define a source and a target directory that are linked to each other. The source directory defines the directory on your local system (that might already be in use currently to exchange files). The target directory defines a directory on your docker installation that can be accessed by the runtime.
