Best practice : expand storage as it gets progressively filled up or install all available storage from the start even if mostly empty ? (zerobytes.monster)

I would like to get your opinion on what the practice is regarding expanding storage. My storage is almost full and I ordered a few HDDs at the same time (got a good deal on them).

Now the question is : is it in my best interest to put all of the new disks in my storage bay, or should I better keep the disks I don't immediately need offline and only install them when the time comes ?

I am running snapraid + mergerfs (mfs), which means that every disk would be written to if installed.
