I don't know what your budget is, but I recently bought a Sabrent 4-bay housing for ~$230:

It's got USB-C 3.2, so transfer speeds are plenty quick, and each bay has it's own locking door and dedicated power button for easy hot swapping. The only downside is that if there's an unexpected sudden power loss, you have to manually turn each drive bay back on, and there's no way to do it remotely.
Interesting design. I’ve never seen a device that has power buttons on each drive bay.
That’s a great price, weird that you turn each drive on individually! Thanks. :-)
It's meant for hot swapping, so you don't have to shut off the whole housing. But yeah, the fact that it doesn't turn back on after a sudden power loss is.... inconvenient. Mine is stationed at my parents' place (they have gigabit fiber).
