View submission: Urgent help needed: Downloading Google Takeout data before expiration
If data is important then pay for a month to get some buffer time?
Download seems to be throttled at ~15MBps, regardless
Better ISP or via some VPS (see other comment)
Clicking each link manually isn't feasible
Can't have cake and eat it too?
Then learn to use rclone.

Data is important. Willing to pay whatever is needed, but don't see where/ how I can fix with $. I started the archive in August... it said 4 days out for months (every day it would say 4 days from that day). Then, for whatever reason it finally went. It was more than 2x larger than expected so it didn't fit in Dropbox. Then over 1 TB was removed from Google Photos. So now there are only the Takeout files. No option to upload to Dropbox or Drive or pay for One. I'm on legacy and afraid to touch it until I backup since I've heard horror stories.

I'm on Gigabit over ethernet and it's capping at about 15MBps. So roughly 3 per file if 5 simultaneous, etc.

Not sure what you mean with the first part, but there simply wouldn't be time to click 2530 times and have it download at the speed it's downloading.
Re rclone, I believe that only works for Drive which is no longer an option per the above.
I appreciate the thoughts, though. Let me know if you think of anything else.
