I have a M4 Mac mini with a LaCie d2 Pro 8TB which supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (up to 10Gb/s) over USB-C. It. has failed twice - both times I've replaced it under warranty.

I use this drive to save my Lightroom libraries and video files. I backup this data with Backblaze and a different external Time Machine backup hard drive.

I'm thinking of either switching to a WD external, or something like a Mediasonic 2-bay RAID drive enclosure with 2 8TB WD Blue drives running a mirrored RAID.

What's your advice for me? My current data is about 5TB. TIA
