Hi! I do video editing and I’m looking to upgrade my storage for past projects. I currently have around 70TB backed across various smaller 4-8tb WD externals (they’re getting old!). I’d like to consolidate these into some bigger drives and have enough space left for a few years (10TB/year).

Are the 28TB Seagate Expansions any good?

I rarely ever pull from my current drives, it’s more of a safety net. If I do pull from them, it’s copying files to my SSD for editing.

I also have a couple OWC Dual Elite Pros - would it better to throw some bigger drives in these?

Everything is also backed up to the cloud.

Thanks for any advice
