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!

Thank you for the input! I've had so many good responses and so many things to think about. I'm sure, like you, I'll probably stumble upon the perfect thing when I least expect it. I've looked at the Red drives too and I'll probably be going with them or the Seagate IronWolf drives. Also, appreciate the input on BackBlaze. A lot of people have recommended that and I've got it bookmarked for future reference.
