Storage required for multiple video files totalling 160Gb
Hi there,
I'm fairly new to Dropbox, at least in terms of using it much!
I am running a retreat this coming weekend and was hoping to download the video content I need straight onto my Macbook but the total storage required is 160Gb and I only have 8Gb max capacity.
I upgraded my largely dormant Dropbox account to the 3Tb Essentials but I still can't download the files. Is it because of the maximum 100Gb single file limit? What can I do to overcome this? Upgrade again? And if so, to what Plan?
Thanks in advance - rapid responses much appreciated1

Hey paulhatcher, thanks for reaching out us and welcome to our Community!
I'm not quite clear on what you're trying to do, would you mind clarifying?
Where are these videos currently stored, and where are you trying to download them from?
And is saving/downloading these videos to your computer's hard drive your goal here?
Any additional clarifications you can give me, would be really helpful.
Thanks!
