I am looking to purchase Drive Pool, etc. I work on a Surface Pro 3 and an iMac. Don't have a NAS and not sure I really want to get that complicated. Thinking of buying a couple Seagate 8TB Expansion Drives and connecting them to a USB hub for my Surface Pro. Then organizing all my older smaller HD's on the two new Seagate's, running a duplicate backup, one copy on each Seagate. And doing a cloud backup as well. I realize everyone here seems to have a NAS but wondered if this system is workable as a simple, more basic solution. Thanks for the time. I appreciate your opinions.
