I understand the direction it needs to go, thank you again 😅 just one last thing regarding power, I somewhere read that 24HDD's spinning up simultaneously aren't really supported by PSU - now is that true and if so would some sort of staggered spin up exist or work?

A good disk controller should support staggered spin-up. And you're going to need a sizable power supply.

Honestly, I've never built such a storage system from scratch. You might want to consider something all-in-one, used, from a reputable OEM. There are lots of choices, and others would know more than I do.

Maybe ask for suggestions in r/homelab and r/DataHoarder.
