My current hyperconverged environment is replicating data across all 3 servers. I'm running critically low on disk space, and need to add space. To that end, I've ordered 8x 800GB ssd drives, and plan to put 4 drives in 1 server, and 4 drives in the other. What's my best option for

If you plan on using CentOS going forward, I would recommend using (starting with) stream, as CentOS 8 will be completely EOL at the end of this year. That said, you can easily convert a CentOS 8 server to CentOS Stream by running these commands:  dnf swap centos-linux-repos
