Got Probox Duo, original plan won't work, suggestions?

I was originally planning to have this enclosure setup with BTRFS mirror for self-healing backup, but it seems to be unsupported by BTRFS to do this with external drives. While it may be possible, it takes quite a bit of configuration on every system I plug it into.

So, I’m wondering what to do with this dual 1TB SSD configuration.

Maybe RSYNC setup to sync certain data to both drives or just one on plugin?

I’m not sure how good the built-in mirror tech is to just use that, pretty sure that would take away smart data too(?)

Are there any dual-bay enclosures I could use in that way, which would have self-healing properties on hardware raid?
