You likely don't need all of those USB devices connected all of the
time.

Another option is to attach a dedicated backup drive to another Mac that
stays running 24/7 on your network, and set up file sharing to share it
as a Time Machine backup drive with all of the other Macs on your
network (in System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing, then
right-clicking the shared folder there to enable the "Share as Time
Machine backup destination advanced option), then back up
to that drive from the other Macs in your home.

I back up all of my Macs using this method to a Mac mini headless server
sitting in my office closet, connected to several external hard drives.
Works great. I don't even think about backups. Time Machine just does
it. Every so often I use SuperDuper to create archives of my systems as
well, just in case something goes wrong with Time Machine. All of the
backups are stored on the drives connected to the Mac mini. I swap one
of the external hard drives with another one that I keep off site in the
event of a catastrophe once a month. That means I will only lose under
one month's worth of changes if my house burns down or something.
