Of course, and you need to read up on RAID a bit.
Try this trick, if you've got a big enough tower case: buy a couple of
hot-swap drive bays from Microcenter, about $30 each. Then buy a couple of
WD Reds - whatever TB you can afford. Install the hot swap bays, stick the
drives in, and use Linux RAID to set them up, either as a mirror (RAID 1),
or RAID 0, I think.
Then just partition it using parted, and have fstab mount it wherever you
want.
