If you look into the deployment guides (.. I was a little bored during lunch, lol. Also high scale tech is cool.) they preload content based on where the device is going to be deployed before shipping them out.
From there they have a "fill" window each day during the ISP's low traffic period where Netflix pushes new content to it.
> Each Open Connect Appliance (OCA) stores a portion of the Netflix catalog, which in general is less than the complete content library for a given region. Popularity changes, new titles that are added to the service, re-encoded movies, and routine software enhancements are all part of the nightly updates, or fill, that each appliance must download to remain current.

I mean honestly in 2022 their catalogue might fit entirely ( :P ) but yeah looks like it's just a portion, comprised of whatever's popular in the region
