Well, I want to use the hardware i have at home first bevore i buy a new nas. But having an external hdd rack would also allow me to seperate storage from computation and make everything a bit more modular

well, USB is known to be kinda iffy with random timeouts etc. I dont know. I would like to have those drives in a raid5 configuration and i assume running all of this over a single connection would throttle everything down. I heard e-sata would be a better alternative but also kinda slow. my server sadly doesnt support thunderbold. Also i am a bit worried that the reading speeds would be to slow for something like jellyfin (if that isnt already the case)
