Command-line Tools can be 235x Faster than a Hadoo...
I closed at "Since the data volume was only about 1.75GB". (And probably would have until 500GB+)

500GB is still laptop SSD territory... unless you meant 500TB but that's still doable with a single 4U Backblaze Storage Pod with 60 x 10TB HDDs.

Just reading 500TB from 60 Hdds will take at least 12 hours, assuming a very optimistic constant 200MB/s throughput per HDD. If you need things to go faster you won't be able to do that without resorting to distributed computing.
