And one more thought: I'd consider LVM instead of RAID0. But whatever system I set up, I need the four 7.68TB NVMe drives to appear as one big-ass 31TB drive.
John, That's what LVM does. You have four physical drives. They can be collected into virtual groups any way you want, including all four in one group. Then each group (one in your case) can be divided into as many logical volumes as you want ... one in your case. That's the way I set up my Mediasonic 4-bay NAS. I now have a single 8TiB volume available. The process is a bit different from preparing a new drive (hard or solid state), but one of the URLs I sent lays them out step-by-step. So, should you choose to once again dip your toes in the LVM waters you'll find plenty of help here to keep them toes warm.
