I have a pi4 running on an ssd over usb3 with a usb3 dock that has 2x2TB drives for storage.

At the moment I have mainly music on one and mainly video on the other, with important stuff on both and elsewhere.

Is it sensible to combine 2x2TB hdd’s via usb3 dock into a 4TB filesystem/pool/volume/thing…and if so can I have tiered storage so if one drive fails the other will have a mirror of important stuff?

    Thanks, I do have backups of important stuff.

    I think bcachefs is what I’m looking for, but I’m gonna wait a bit until development calms down a little and keep on the way I am at the moment.
