Abstract
Multiple shippable storage devices may be used for a bulk data transfer, local storage, and remote synchronization to a remote storage service. A storage service provider ships multiple shippable storage devices to a client, which are then attached to the client network. The client data on the client network is transferred to the shippable storage devices according to a redundancy encoding scheme. A subset of the shippable storage devices are then shipped back to the remote storage provider to store a copy of the client data at the remote storage service. The remainder of the shippable storage devices are sufficient in number to store the client data. When the client data is updated on the shippable storage devices, the shippable storage devices send an update via network transmission to the remote storage service. The remote storage service then updates the copy of the client data.
