Is there an efficient way to bulk-download these GEO datasets at high speed?
GSE134379 (450K) GSE109627 (450K) GSE208623 (EPIC) GSE311578 (EPIC) GSE284764 (EPIC) GSE226298 (EPIC) GSE156984 (EPIC)
This is my first GEO project, so I would appreciate guidance on the most reliable and efficient download approach.
is there also any quick way to capture all the AD and PD related dnam data?

You can download the data from accession specific FTP pages. There are different types of files there including a complete data archive (which would be a single file download). If you are on a unix system with direct internet access, you could wget the single archive file below or simply download to a local desktop as an alternative.
e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE134379 and the RAW data archive for this accession at: https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/series/GSE134nnn/GSE134379/suppl/GSE134379_RAW.tar
You can find files for other accessions from respective pages (for example) :
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE109627
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE156984
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE284764
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE109627
You could also use a R package like GEOquery as well : https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/GEOquery.html
