How can I JBOD my hdds?

If you simply want to join two disks into a single virtual disk without making any changes to those disks why not look at FUSE?

https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse

I use it to access a copy of my home NAS file system when I'm at my second home in France. I'm not worried about resilience as I always have my NAS original (and a full backup on another offline NAS as it happens). The total file system size is 7TB, so I have split it across two 4TB disks in France.

The two disks are mounted in an external USB drive box and appear individually on my local server. I combine the two drives using FUSE so they also appear as one file system, just as they do at home.

This is the command in my fstab file:

mhddfs /media/1.42.6-7308,/media/1.42.6-73081 /media/NAS_copy -o ro,nonempty,allow_other,dev,suid

1.42.6-7308 and 1.42.6-73081 are the two individual 4TB USB drives and NAS_copy is the combined file system.

Note that I've made it read-only as it's just a local copy, but you don't have to! I use rsync to update the file system periodically. I also have a crontab job that "touches" the usb drives every 5 minutes to stop them going to sleep as that can break the FUSE file system:

*/5 * * * * /bin/touch /media/1.42.6-7308 &>/dev/null
*/5 * * * * /bin/touch /media/1.42.6-73081 &>/dev/null

The advantage of FUSE over JBOD is that if one disk dies, I simply rewrite the contents to another drive. The second drive doesn't need to be touched since the disks are entirely independent. The disadvantage is that it is lower performance than JBOD but, frankly, that's irrelevant to me in this situation.
