For local storage, an alternative to the Synology that others have mentioned is UnRAID.
* Consolidate your drives to empty the largest ones you can. Or, buy three 20TB drives (two for data, one for parity).
* Buy/build a small server, install UnRAID on it, and create an array. If using new drives, you will have 40TB available.
* Copy each old drive's data to the array. Retain the old drives as backup.
* Once done, a) set up remote backup, and b) build a second, identical UnRAID server as another backup. Or the tape backup also suggested.
