If anyone is wondering, the business case for this kind of hardware is by avoiding paying public internet data egress and other fees when transferring data between cloud providers or your own on-prem DC. Some Data center providers have their own fiber networks to enable transfers at rates below what you'd pay to transfer via public.
Seagate offers a similar solution but as a service.. Lyve. Their hardware uses "docking stations" and portable unit with storage.
As others have mentioned, Amazon has a similar device/service but it can be used only for transferring data into Amazon afaik.
