The security checkup takes less than a minute and is actually a good idea as you get to see the devices and permissions linked to your Google account.

As you can see below, this year the extra 2GB bonus is instantly applied, as seen by our account settings overview of our Google Drive storage. Do note the free storage does not apply to Google Apps for Work or Education accounts.
