This mode is currently supported with the Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) Agent, in preview. This option takes advantage of [Azure Data Box](https://azure.microsoft.com/services/databox/) to ship Microsoft-proprietary, secure, and tamper-resistant transfer appliances with USB connectors to your datacenter or remote office. Backup data is directly written onto these devices. This option saves the effort required to procure your own Azure-compatible disks and connectors or to provision temporary storage as a staging location. Microsoft also handles the end-to-end transfer logistics, which you can track through the Azure portal.
