My wife and I use Google Photos to back up our pictures automatically. It's a great system and we've had no issues with it. But I really wanted to back up her photos in case some disaster struck and she lost them.
I requested a download file be created. It was almost 300gb of data split into 2gb files!
I spent a couple of days of concentrated effort downloading 15 files at a time (all Windows would allow) and after over 18 hours I finally had them all downloaded. I quickly copied them to an external drive.
This is one of those projects that isn't very visible but very necessary. I'm glad I completed it. Woohoo!
