Ahoy! My internal hdds are at max with all I've been torrenting and I'm considering some type of Docking station for my desktop with several 10Tbs drives in them to allow me to store and backup my data for offline protection.

I was wondering if anyone had done any type of setup like this and if it's a reliable method for offline data storage. I'd also like it to have a RAID capability but I have software which can mirror drives to each other on startup/shutdown, etc. Also, I'd need it to have a USB-type connection for a USB SSD drive to pop-out & connect to my Smart TV for viewing.

An end goal would be to get a 3-2-1 setup but I can't find a reliable Cloud storage I'd trust with that much data except maybe Filen.

Any positive input about brands, drives, services, etc. would be most appreciated!

Thanks!

I build a NAS in 2015. It runs TrueNAS Scale, tons of docker containers for self hosting everything, and 4x 16TB disks in RAIDZ2. I can lose any 2 disks and be ok.

Edit:

I should add that I also ship my data with rsync to back blaze b2, and truenas has built in capabilities to encrypt the datasets before shipment, including directory/dataset names. My shits all up there encrypted and randomly named.
