    Overview

    Mass Data Migration uses storage devices with 120 TB of usable capacity to accelerate moving data to the cloud and overcome common transfer challenges like high costs, long transfer times and security concerns — all in a single service.

    The Azure Data Box service lets you transfer terabytes of data into Azure in a quick, inexpensive, and reliable manner. Microsoft accelerates the secure data transfer by shipping you disks and handling the end-to-end logistics.

    Transfer large amounts of data to Azure in 4 easy steps – order, receive, copy data to disks, and return disks to Azure. After the disks are received, data is ingested into Azure and disks are securely wiped.
