Named volumes let you specify more details like the type of driver to use.

For example, say you wanted to store your data in Minio, which is like S3, rather than on the local file system. You’d make a named volume and use the s3 driver.

Plus it helps with cross-container stuff. Like if you wanted sabnzbd and sonarr and radarr to use the same directory you just need to specify it once.
