When it comes to upgrades, you could also look at logical
replication.  Unfortunately your origin version cannot do that.  Have
you looked at things like BDR or Slony?  They are logical-based,
meaning a lower downtime than pg_upgrade, but they take longer.

For 3TB pg_upgrade can also be very fast if you use --link.  Be wary
of having backups though, all the time.
