4tb? Wow you don’t watch much eh? I’m currently trying to figure out what to do bec I have one machine with esxi, 18tb that are almost full and I wanna separate it off, with data being in a NAS and OS’s/containers staying on the hypervisor. But I have no clue how to do that in a way that doesn’t end up basically wasting a few hdds or taking a very long to copy everything.

Also I don’t wanna spend another $1000, though it looks like that’s what it’ll take. Between HDDs and a new case (I already have a good enough mb,cpu,ram,psu config that I can canabalize from elsewhere). Biggest issue is finding a cheap case that has the expansion available for more drives. They just don’t make cases like that anymore and all the people near me wanna sell a full pc for 100s. I just don’t need that.
