Hey Arish! I hope you’re doing well and sorry for jumping in.

 

In that scenario, you can use a third-party app to move these files over to your Dropbox account. 

 

Another option would be to install the Dropbox app on your computer (in case you haven’t already), download your files from Google Drive to your device and then, move them over to your local Dropbox folder. 

 

Since this is a large amount of data we’re talking about though, it will take some time for the updates to sync to your online Dropbox account.
