You can attach additional EBS volumes to instances, and they are not deleted when the instance is terminated.

[AWS] EC2 – Instance Types

An Instance Type determines a particular set of features and sizes (hardware components) that decide the level of workload – Compute Power (vCPU), Memory, Storage Options, Network Performance.

AWS provides various purchasing options for users to optimize their costs based on their needs. On-demand is the base option. You can pay just for what you use. But you can get a discount by reserving instances for a set of periods.

[AWS] EC2 Basics
