Disk Storage and BLOB issue

[Adam McDonald]

MySQL Version 5.1.14-beta (latest)

Undo files and tablespace commands:
CREATE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
ADD UNDOFILE 'undo_1.dat'
INITIAL_SIZE 16M
UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE 2M
ENGINE NDB;

ALTER LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
ADD UNDOFILE 'undo_2.dat'
INITIAL_SIZE 12M
ENGINE NDB;

CREATE TABLESPACE ts_1
ADD DATAFILE 'data_1.dat'
USE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1
INITIAL_SIZE 50G
ENGINE NDB;

ALTER TABLESPACE ts_1
ADD DATAFILE 'data_2.dat'
INITIAL_SIZE 50G
ENGINE NDB;

Table creation command:
CREATE TABLE `<dbname>`.`FileDataStorage` (
`fileid` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`clientid` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`articleid` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`type` varchar(8) DEFAULT NULL,
`data` longblob,
`size` int(11) NOT NULL,
`created` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`fileid`),
KEY `filedatastorage_idx0` (`clientid`),
KEY `filedatastorage_idx1` (`articleid`),
INDEX(type, size, created)
)
TABLESPACE ts_1 STORAGE DISK
ENGINE=NDBCLUSTER DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

----------------------------------

Checking the table using ndb_desc:
$ ndb_desc -c localhost FileDataStorage -d <dbname> -p

So I am curious why the data BLOB column isn't being stored on disk??? I pretty much followed the Reference Manual word-for-word when setting up the disk based storage and it doesn't appear that the data BLOB is an index. Is there a special way you have to handle blobs since I know the data is actually stored in another table with the ndbcluster. Is there something I am missing? Thanks in advance.
