  You can have more than one drive on a pi, either USB, or they sell sata boards

    Yes, I have 2x 4TB external drives in a Snap Raid config. Works great for years. :)

      How do you connect them? Via SATA? Do you have a drive enclosure?

        Just USB3, external drives and my Raspi has an enclosure.

        Was actually my first venture into homelabbing but it proofed pretty sufficient. :)
