RE: Physics Nobel Prize 2017 - A short introduction to Gravitational Waves

In theory yes, in practice no.
You would need to use ridiculous amounts of energy to produce a tiny signal which you can't even focus properly. The general problem is that gravitation is so much weaker than electromagnetic interaction that you will always want to use light/electromagnetic signals in the first place.

Or you can send hard drives by a reasonably fast ship :D

That makes sense, thanks.
