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 :D

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.
