You need steady 1300MBytes/sec for this, so at least 8 HDDs or 3-4xSSDs.
In terms of connections- 10Gbit is not fast enough. You rather need TB3 or 16Gbit+ fibre. TB2 is on border line.
Awesome man. I will use this as reference . Right now my current setup (personal use) is using 4SSD x2Tb= 8Tb internally on AMD threadripper system. Works fine so far. I just need that formula in case i want to build TB3 HDDs external storage . SSD is expensive if i want to go 32Tb+ then it maybe not a good choice. Since i'm not at corporate class, i would avoid fiber system, i think it need more maintanance and need more addon hardware (correct me if i'm wrong). If you need giant storage capacity and multiple user access , the fiber is fit. But i think for 3Tgb , maybe TB3 is better choice.
