So I wouldn't consider myself qualifying of the title "data hoarder" but currently I have two external 20 TB drives being used with a popular media server program attached to a micro pc.
One is being used as a main drive and one is a mirror that's currently being populated on a schedule with SyncBackPro.
This had lasted me a few months but now I'm running low on space (2 TB remaining) and wondering what kind of setup may be best for my needs.
Should I just buy two more 20 TB external drives and use some software to mimic a singular 40 TB drive (if that's even possible)?
Should I try to buy some off the shelf 4 or 6 bay enclosure, shuck the drives and then fill the rest up as needed with drives?
Just bite the bullet and bites nails prune my data down? None of the above?
I never thought I'd even fill up an 8 TB drive a few years ago but now having a full 20 TB drive(and a 5 TB seed box that's almost full as well) is something I never expected.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
