I need a bunch of external HDDs (preferably 4 bays) and I don't care about NAS internet functions, just HDDs that I connect to my PC via USB (don't mind slower speeds as I only need the HDDs for archiving important files that I don't access all the time) on the same desk as my PC and be able connect to each HDD independently and manually make them a backup of each other in case one fails.

Are the FANTEC QB-35US3-6G (137 Eur) or TERRAMASTER D4-300 (179 Eur) good choices or is there a better alternative (in Italy)? Synology and QNAP are good but they are either way too expensive or only 2 bays (and I wouldn't make use of the LAN).

Should I instead just stick with external drives from Seagate or WD (WD 8TB is 179 Eur and Seagate is 162 Eur)?
