I am new to external storage but PC hardware savvy. I need a fast external storage solution to host my Lightroom catalogs (50K+ raw photos and 4k video files. I am a amature photographer and I produce video content. I need FAST storage. Currently using 4 16TB Seagate EXOS drives non raided and they are a bit slow and do not fit in my PC case. Looking for a faster raid setup and an interface that can handle the throughput. I need speeds in the 300mbs or higher sustained. Too much for a 1gb network connection. I need options. Setup is for a single user I do have thunderbolt 4 on my PC and a 10GB router. Basically just need the fastest cheap option there is with some added speed and redundancy.
