The storage account specified for managed disks is used as a staging storage account. The Data Box service uploads the VHDs to the staging storage account and then converts those into managed disks and moves to the resource groups. For more information, see Verify data upload to Azure.

Configuring a customer-managed key for your Azure Data Box Disk is optional. By default, Data Box uses a Microsoft managed key to protect the unlock passkey.
109
+
110
+
A customer-managed key doesn't affect how data on the device is encrypted. The key is only used to encrypt the device unlock passkey.
111
+
112
+
If you don't want to use a customer-managed key, skip to Step 14.
113
+
114
+
1. To use a customer-managed key, select **Customer managed key** as the key type. Then choose **Select a key vault and key**.

Then, on the **Create key vault** screen, enter the resource group and a key vault name. Ensure that **Soft delete** and **Purge protection** are enabled. Accept all other defaults, and select **Review + Create**.
131
+
132

Review the information for your key vault, and select **Create**. Wait for a couple minutes for key vault creation to complete.

You'll be notified when the key has been created in your key vault. Your new key will be selected and displayed on the **Select a key** blade.
