Dividing Data Set Into Groups of Similar Size

I have a data set containing over 4,000 entries, each representing a particular file size. I need to break this into relatively equal groupings that total around 50 GB each. For example, each row contains a name and a total file size, representing how large their individual data set is. I need to migrate these from one storage platform to another, and can migrate about 50 GB at a time. Is there a way to create these groups automatically in Excel?

Thank you!

Gary
 
Upload sample workbook that accurately represent your data set (desensitized info, but data type should remain same as actual workbook).

Edit: Oh and specify what version of Excel you are using. That will also dictate what tools you can use.
