I currently have 3 HDs, each 700Gb and running Btrfs, in this laptop. Two are used in a RAID1 configuration and one is my snapshot storage.
I have started experimenting with IPFS and ZeroNet, p2p solutions to Internet censorship. Last night I had 605 peers connected to my IPFS instance. Each can take about 10Mb or more for their web image. When I checked my bandwidth usage before I shut down IPFS there had been about 6Gb into my connection and about 35Gb moved out of my connection to other peers during three hours of usage. Luckily, I have a 60+Mbps connection, soon to be upgraded to 100Mbps, if not 1Gbps. That data is stored in the IPFS repo, which resides at ~/.ipfs. Supposedly, neither Spectrum nor Allo have bandwidth caps, but I suspect that will change if a lot of people start acting as nodes in a P2P network. Spectrum's bandwidth cap history is here. In a chat with an Allo rep he stated that Allo, which is a startup, does not have a bandwidth cap.
Using two of my HDs as RAID1 I suspect that my free disk space will diminish considerably. So, I plan to revert to a system with two HDs forming a single pool, to at least double my free space, while still using the third drive as storage for my @ and @home snapshots.
Here is my setup as it currently is:
