A system for transferring a large amount of stored data, comprising:

• a transit case;
• a plurality of RAIDs housed within the transit case, each RAID capable of storing at least approximately 1.6 terabytes of data;
• a uninterruptible power supply associated with the transit case;
• and
• wherein the transit case comprises:
• a generally rectangular housing;
• a front cover selectively removable from the housing;
• a rear cover selectively removable from the housing;
• shock isolators associated with the large capacity storage devices and operable to reduce shock loading encountered by the large capacity storage devices during transportation of the transit case;
• a first seal disposed around a perimeter of the front cover;
• a second seal disposed around a perimeter of the rear cover;
• a plurality of wheels coupled to a bottom of the housing;
• and
• wherein the transit case has a size that is conducive to eight foot by ten foot steel pallets used in air transportation.
