I have a ThunderBay 4 with 4 x 8TB drives. I'd like to eventually expand, and was wondering if I could simply buy another ThunderBay 4, load it with 4 more drives, and daisy chain to my original TB 4 and create one volume from all 8 drives?

Is this possible, or am I only able to do this if I had all 16 drives present at once from the beginning? Trying to determine if this is an option without having to move the data elsewhere, as I don't have any spare drives big enough to hold everything.

Sorry, at this time we cannot add disks to an Array as you are asking, you need them all available when creating the volume.
