I'm building a pc for gaming and audio stuff. I need a way to effectively swap hard drives. should I get an external one or should I get a hot swap bay for my pc?

An External HDD with USB3.0 connectivity would be a good route provided you're not dealing with overwhelming TB's of data. Mind sharing with us why you need to swap HDD's?

What is the requirement for swapping drives?
This may help lead to a solution.

I edit audio, so I need a lot of hard drive space, I thought hot swap would be a cool and efficient way to do that

How about a 4 bay external USB box?
I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003X26VV4

4 bays, up to 8TB each. USB 3.0 or eSATA connection
