    Super expensive, Main target looks like apple boys with big pockets and lack of common sense. Looking G-SPEED Shuttle XL with Thunderbolt 3 with 32TB. 2 x 16TB hdd is around $900, the gadget cost 3,900. So we are paying $3,000 for a case with. You are better building your own PC with handle with space for 8 HDD. That will cost you around $1,000 and if you very low in specs probably $500, install linux ZFS and you save a ton of money enough to fill that PC with 144TB

    Imagine how long it would take to backup one of these.

    Yeah, this makes no sense anymore.
    If speed is 150MB/s this ends up at 16 hours. Best best case!
    I have 12TB IronWolfs and copy from M.2 onto is at 180MB/s

    150MB/s? You are wrong there mate. These WD drives will copy at a sustained 250MB/s. My WD Purple 12TB does 230MB/s. Why did you buy Seagate specifically?
