A Storage Class defines the physical storage where internal and external files must be stored when entering Data Mover. Moreover, it defines where incoming files must be temporarily stored before their transfer is completed.
Data Mover supports these storage classes: File System, SMB v3 or later versions, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage and Azure Blob Storage.
