Hey there! I’m looking to pirate sports and streaming services that I can’t afford. Could you please explain in simple terms of how to do this on an iPhone, iMac, iPad, and Apple TV? I’m really exhausted and my brain is blank. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Just two either 16GB or 20GB HDDs to work as backups of each other. The USB hubs for the HDDs would need to be powered.

    The USB hubs for the HDDs would need to be powered.

    If the HDDs themselves are bus-powered, yes. But larger HDD enclosures often have their own power supply (which just adds to the mess of cables).

    Just two either 16GB or 20GB HDDs to work as backups of each other.

    That's how I started. And eventually I ended up with 6 USB drives connected to my 2 bay NAS.

    If you're certain that you won't have to expand your setup anytime soon, go for it. But if you want to future proof, I'd recommend a 5 bay NAS instead of laptop and put 2-3 HDDs in there to start with. Shouldn't be that big of a price difference but will give you the option of easily adding more storage later.
