Hello, currently I have all my plex and files in 2 external 5tb seagate hdd, I manually make sure they both have the same contents so I always have a backup.

Currently I run out of space and want to buy a couple bigger drives. They need to be external, I have a laptop and for now not interested in having a nas or similar. I am wondering:

should I keep buying external or better an internal (I think its cheaper?) with an external case I can plus them to?
what would be a good option for 2 hdd of at least 8tb (ideally 12)? I dont want to spend mote than 200 dollars.

Thanks!
