Yes

"Block Storage" or "Block Data" means you create a Volume (LUN) on the Storage an present (export) it to one (or more) Server.

The Server sees the Volume a an local Volume format it in the Filesystem of the OS (NTFS, VMFS or whatever) and than wirte in Blocks (Cluster).

In "File Storage" the Storage present a Share (CIFS, NFS) to the Server(s) and the Server write the Data to the Share.
The Server did not know the Format of the Filesystem or where the Files reside.
