Google has an option to have hardware shipped to you that can hold 480TB uncompressed.

Not sure if it works with the 'drive' but does with google cloud storage: https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/introducing-trans...

The 480TB one is retired, replaced with a 300TB all flash one.

But more importantly these devices are only for uploading to GCP, not exporting data from.

The devices would of course work for sending data. What doesn't work is the google organization.
