Raid 0 with my two 8 tb drives, or buy a single 16\18\20 tb drive? Just bought a NAS. (zerobytes.monster)

Good evening everyone. Just wanted to ask for suggestione regarding my drives.

I'm a photographer, all my pc is back upped with Backblaze so I don't fear to lose my work. I bought a NAS UGREEN DXP2800 primarily to work when I'm not in my studio with all of my photos;

they are stored in two external 8 tb WD Mybook.

So my question is: would be better to shunk these two drives and put them in RAID 0 inside the NAS? Or considering that they are almost full, should I buy a 16\18\20 tb drive like the Exos X20\Ironwolf Pro?

Thanks in advance
