I've got my Ultra Studio on order with 4 TB internal storage, which I will use for my audio mixing projects - with cloud backup.
I am looking for an external enclosure with 2 or possibly 4 SATA bays for JBOD backing up to Time Machine, Carbon Copy bootable backup and long term archiving. Most likely with spinners. QUIET WITH MINIMUM NOISE
Thinking of either the OWC ThunderBay 4 with TB 3 and 4 SATA bays

or OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual with USB 3.2 and 2 SATA bays

Any other suggestions?
I have been using a spinner for Time Machine backup until now and it works great for me, can be a little slow for Recovering files, but that is not often and no big issue for me.
