Has anyone used the new Azure Data Box devices? I'm curious about the copy speeds for both the 120TB and 525TB options. What are some practical use cases you've encountered? I'm considering migrating to managed disks; is that possible?

I've seen clients struggle with using the Azure Data Box because moving files over the internet often turns out to be faster or easier. If you're moving closer to the 525TB, it might be worth it. However, keep in mind that you can't migrate directly to managed disks since they go to blob storage first; you'd need to move it to a VM for that step.
What kind of data are you trying to transfer?
Pushing 5PB over the internet sounds daunting! I get that "files" is a broad term; migrating large datasets like this surely complicates things. Has anyone found success with the Data Box for such large volumes?
