The Washup;
Connecting Multiple Harddrives (5 x 4 TB) to a Kodi Device
Went with an Odroid C2 with Libreelec on a 32 gb microSD card (UHS1). The Odroid is powered off a powered USB hub using a micro USB (you need at least 2 amps). Mouse is an air mouse which uses one of the USB ports for the IR dongle (used one at the top so the mouse has direct line). Two of the other harddrives use two other ports on the Odroid and the three other hard drives are connected to the powered hub and then use the fourth Odroid USB port.
Libreelec picked up all 5 drives seamlessly and registered them in the media directory. 20,000 items all scrapped fine via the movie database etc. So all good and a recommended setup if you have a lot of local content with more than two drives.
