AWS Snowball User Guide
Receive the Snowball
• Data destination – This on-premises device will hold the data that you want to transfer from the
Snowball. It can be a single device, such as a hard drive or USB stick, or it can be separate destinations
of data within your data center. The data destination must be mounted onto your workstation in order
to transfer data to it.
• Workstation – This computer hosts your mounted data destination. You'll use this workstation to
receive data from the Snowball. We highly recommend that your workstation be a powerful computer,
able to meet high demands in terms of processing, memory, and networking. For more information,
see Workstation Specifications (p. 93).
