Downloading Volumes

Hello,

Upon stopping an instance and downloading it’s volume, I am left with: 

[root@lunder ~]# ls -lah /storage/secondary/volumes/
total 24K
drwxrwxrwx 6 root root 4.0K Jun 21 22:58 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4.0K Apr 25 20:49 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jun 21 22:58 19
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jun 12 00:29 25
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jun 10 16:11 26
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jun 21 21:20 36
[root@lunder ~]# 

Within those are files that are like:

/storage/secondary/volumes/19/8d66021f-5981-4218-9333-bcda8515fa8f.qcow2
/storage/secondary/volumes/26/7e450b5f-c09a-4727-8435-d2eb28761bee.qcow2
/storage/secondary/volumes/36/44a17372-0994-49a1-8d62-563ca49fb1d5.qcow2
/storage/secondary/volumes/36/f3271960-1352-44be-84ae-7043099c39ec.qcow2

My question is, are these the volumes of which bundled themselves up for my downloading pleasure; if so, can I safely remove them.  They are quite large in size and taking away from my over all storage I would think.
