spec sheet max temp means the maximum it can go, limit of its operation. the software detected max temp is the highest temp it has recorded from the hdd, so your hdd is still working fine

Hi sifus. Please critique my NAS set up to back up photos and videos from me and wife phone.

I have a RPi4, connected to two WD Blue 1TB HDD using cheap Maiwo docking station.

The first WD Blue is the main HDD. The second is the clone. I clone once a month manually using Rsync.

The Pi and HDD is not always on. Only on when we need it.

Please criticise. Thank you.

What app are you using to backup from phone to NAS? Cloning to the second HDD may not be as safe since it is running on the same system, any hardware failure affecting one HDD will affect the other too. Nonetheless still an extra backup copy in case primary failure. Add also periodic SMART tests on both HDD to check their health
