It depends on synology yes. On unraid yes. Freenas which uses zfs can be a little tricky to do.

I’m in the same boat, still waiting on a 4 bay NAS deal and two more of the 8TB to pair with the other two I have. The bare drives with no enclose are regularly on EBay for $150 new.

Imho buy two or three of these and back up the same data to each drive. Problem solved. No shucking needed and you don't need to spin the drives 24/7 either. Just my opinion.

Likely to keep the array up and functioning. If you choose RAID0 I hope you have recurring backup plans.

I mostly agree.. even if wanting RAID for some security, most think it is a simple thing that only exists in one flavor, and think having it is equivalent to safety.
