File Deduplication
I recently used [fdupes](https://github.com/adrianlopezroche/fdupes) to figure out duplicate files from my amazon cloud drive / photos migration. Took about 2 days to scour through about 1.5TB worth of day.

How would I go about copying around 5TB worth of data, from multiple drives to a singular drive/drives (Shared Pools/Raid)?
I would add the content of your current drives with rysnc to the new big drive. I would then run https://github.com/adrianlopezroche/fdupes To remove duplicate files.

Photos supposedly backed up, but I can't see them
Sometime the browser does not refresh immediately.. look at https://photos.google.com/search/_tra_ (recently added), if you see the 4 photos there, go to https://photos.google.com/ and refresh (multiple times, if necessary).

LPT: Use captions feature in Google photos app to make any photo or video easily searchable in future, across devices. You can search for key moments of your life, even years later with search words rather than scrolling down for years.
On the web app (photos.google.com) and the android app, it's "description" but yes i agree with this post regardless. You can use it for keywords or whatever you want and it becomes way more searchable.

Photos taken with Pixel 8 Pro Don't Display Date on Chromecast
With my latest set of photos taken with a Pixel 8 Pro, the photos in the albums display with the album name, but the date doesn't display for them (and only them). Previous photos from previous albums are fine. The exif data on the new Pixel 8 Pro photos looks correct when viewed both within Google Photos app and photos.google.com.

Did Google Takeout fix itself? Metadata seems to be included
However, I just tried doing a "3 dot" Download all in an album in photos.google.com , as well as a Takeout of the same album. File sizes are the same, and seems like the metadata is in both downloads... I have checked with exiftool too!
