Should be feasible, but my yotamaster (https://www.amazon.com/Yottamaster-Aluminum-Enclosure-Support-Silver/dp/B071ZP2HFK?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=A3OLRMD4MBYEYY) is a pile of trash that cannot get past 100mbps and gives read errors if I add drives over 2tb.
I would get much cheaper 1 bay enclosures instead, at least they are much more tested as there are many more users
You're absolutely right, it doesn't support RAID. So the drives should just all show up individually unless you pool them. I'm still new to the whole thing, but I think a software raid solution such as Windows Storage Spaces should suffice. I don't think it will be as good as hardware raid, but it seems simple and convenient enough to do the job.
Alternatively, I found this enclosure that supports raid: https://smile.amazon.com/Yottamaster-Aluminum-Enclosure-Support-Silver/dp/B071ZP2HFK/
Never heard of the brand before, but the reviews seem solid.

Got this, been working for over 3 months, hotswapped works fine
For the HDD's here is a dedicated RAID enclosure if you didn't have one ready.
I got you a R9 3950X, which is the best you can get short of a Threadripper. A 2080ti which again is the best you can get short of a Titan, both are way too expensive and the Titan provides minimal improvement.
Unfortunately ASRock is the only MOBO that has a Thunderbolt 3 port for Ryzen chipset motherboards, but this is still a good motherboard, if a little on the expensive side. It'll have enough usb 3.2 headers, and fan headers if you wanted to purchase more.
I paired the R9 3950X with a NZXT Kraken X72 AIO to cool it well and quietly.
I got you a 2TB NVMe SSD, but if you want it to be even faster you could opt for a PCIe SSD such as this, but SSD's like those get expensive fast.
64GB of 3600MHz RAM, but if you wanted to you could get 128GB if you go for 32GB modules
I definitely went overkill on the RAID storage, but hey, you can save stuff for a while. Just keep it organized.
The PSU is a 1600W 80+ Platinum certified, so that'll have enough power for everything and probably expansion.
If you have any questions LMK.
