Hey all,

I am moving cross country and packing up the apartment into a moving truck and driving 10.5 hours to the new place.

What is the best way to transport 3.5 HDDs in my NAS so they dont get damaged?

Moving trucks dont have much support and everything feels the vibrations more than your average car on the road. is there a case, trunk, or box that i can purchase off amazon or something that will help keep my data safe in transport?

I'll try and put the most important stuff on the cloud BUT realistically i dont have close to enough cloud storage for everything

tips, tricks, products all welcome!

EDIT: for reference I have a QNAP TS-453D , not an enterprise rack. im a baby data horder. 28TB in the NAS , with additional 24TB in my tower.
