I suggest removing one GST02TBG221146 and one GSTG02TB230206. Put them
on the shelf, in other computer(s), or sell them. Then perhaps copying
the /home RAID10 2 TB to one Gigastone 2 TB SSD would work.

Or LABEL them.
And I seem to be making some progress this morning. opening a konsole
and setting scrollback to 200 lines, limiting its use of memory, the tan
memory bar in htop if full scale and it a couple megs into swap out of
107G. and the system still feels normal.
in another multitabbed xfce4 shell, a "df && free" is showing this:

rsync has been stopped and restarted, 4 times, but stopping it has not
recovered the cache, so swap is increasing slowly.
That faint knocking sound? Me, knocking on wood... ;o)>
command line: rsync -a --bwlimit=10m --fsync --progress /home/ /mnt/homevol
So we'll eventually either git-r-done or crask the system but this is
farther than it ever got before in several days.
Thanks everybody.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
