Cheap SSD storage solution??

Hey Everyone,

I live in Japan, I am running a YouTube channel/media company. Its growing too quick and storage for editing is becoming a real issue.

SSD price are insane right now, I shoot and edit my footage usually on the go as the channel is a travel channel.

I need to house my footage for use in the future, YT shorts, best of vids, etc.

I always have to transfer the vid files from MicroSD's to the HDD im using now, takes forever.

HDD's read speeds are slow, I need serious storage like 5TB to 10TB but with speed.

Also HDD's scare me, We carry camera gear etc, ngl, we've dropped the portable HDD we are using a few times and my heart sinks every time praying we didn't just lose it all.

Over time I will definitely exceed 10TB, so a long term solution I can work toward is ideal.

Anyone have any ideas?
