My bad. > I can say from personal experience that Google is a bit stingy about such things. They give G Suite basic users 30 GB of storage, but if you try to put tens of GB in it, you can only pull that all down a few times a month before that user’s account gets locked. That happened to us with one user that kept blowing up his laptop, requiring a rebuild, and thus a re-download of the entire IMAP archive he insisted on keeping in the cloud. True. > If they’re doing that to us, 3 orders of magnitude down from the OP’s target value, I think he’ll have a bad time trying to put 50 TB into a single Google Drive account. OP should check if their university already offers G Suite. Most colleges in US do, and they come with unlimited storage (with all the shortcomings you mentioned above). -- Elliot
