Confusion regarding environments and databases

I'm new to railway and am confused about data in database instances in different environments. I've created a production environment and a development environment, each with an app from a github repo and a postgres instance. Both postgres instances seem to share a disk, however, which confuses me. Are the two databases not separate? Thanks

the databases are separate, the databases data is separate, the volume name is just the same and that is purely just a display name

then don't worry about it, it's just a display name
