Going between this or the Promise Pegasus2. Which are more reliable?

As of now I have budgeted out a 12 TB with Raid 5 set up. I think I overshot th hours just to be safe. I would get a few WD drive 8 TB backups for I think $500 or so each.

So then my question is this with shooting 4K on a Pegasus2 thunderbolt hard drive for example, what is the least you can edit feature on doing a full feature-length documentary with interviews and day in the life of footage etc.? Based upon the 8 to 12 and 18 TB drives? Is it at all possible on 8 or 12 in non raw 4k with the Sony FS7 files? 60 min per 128gb XQD cards. No visual effects and standard only settings (non heavy grade)? I’m okay with buying less terabytes and buying a huge one down the road but I do need for the time being two terabyte RAID 5 drives (one main and one back up) within those 3 ranges (8,12,18).

I tried to explain best I could in this video…any ideas guys? Jeff, seems like your graphic was in the right direction but which do you suggest based on the video?

Thanks Jeff.
So when you say “If you drag the Project from your drive to an external drive (inside of FCPX) it’ll prompt you to move the project with/without the events necessary. ” Can you expand on this response? I am not sure what you meant by dragging the Project from my drive to an external drive (inside of FCP)? Meaning what? Maybe I’m confusing myself here. The HD will be blank, not holding any FCP programs. So will the file still be good when transfering onto a HD, taking out the cable, putting the cable into iMac and then placing it into FCP X on the desktop?
Is there a better way to do this so that it doesn’t take up space on the actual desktop on the iMac? Also is there a simple way to back it up? Two or three drives me for would be (one to edit, one to back up and one to 2nd back up)
