I'd guess you'd transfer it to the same thing that was accepting the data when it was coming over the 1Gbps link?

The parameters of that scenario were that you'd ship the data on the disks that were eventually to store it (presumably without duplicating the OS on each during the transfer process). Therefore, there'd be nothing to move the data to.
