Use "split" to split the file into pieces! You can later use "cat" to
concatenate the files to get the whole. 

For safe measure, write a shell script to do the splitting and
concatenation. Check this script on a smaller file like 1Mb or so.
Copy the script along with the split files to the backup location so
that you don't have to remember anything later.

Writing the script is left as an exercise!
