So got a project that fell on my lap and I want to do it right the first time. Thinking about a large jbod enclosure ( https://a.co/d/fss2guL ) and filling it with either 10tb ( https://a.co/d/bBHLMKS ) or 20tb ( https://a.co/d/fWYwRj1 ). Tbh I really only use flashdrives and normal ext hdds so I'm wondering if this is a good idea. 80tb would probably be fine but 160tb is in the budget. Would there be a software yall recommend to manage the enclosure or just plug it into the pc and let it rip? There is currently a dozen or so 8tb wd externals in the house that and my pc doesn't like it when they are all plugged in and also wondering what's the best way to transfer large externals into the new enclosure. Downvotes are cool if this isn't the right place to ask but would love some advice from the pros :]
