Thanks for the ideas. I really don't want to put a HDD into the case: for various reasons I want to keep it SSD. I'd love an SSD but for the size I need I can't justify the cost. Finally, I have bought a LaCie Porsche Design 5TB USB-C + USB 3.0, which will take the data I have and seems to be well reviewed for performance and reliability (I've had a LaCie Firewire drive for 10 years+ and it's lasted just fine. I think it's the luck of the draw how long a drive lasts - I have a lot of various makes and I've only had two or three fail on me.
So fingers crossed with this one... £159.99 sterling, good price for the UK.
