Unless I'm misunderstanding the situation, you do not need to have multiple storage devices. Bareos can interleave jobs to one or more devices.
Check "Max Concurrent" settings for storage devices, storage daemon, and director.
Assuming you start multiple jobs against multiple clients, you should be able to get more than one job going at the same time.
I hope that helps.

I believe the "Max Concurrent" setting is for clients too if you
want to have parallel jobs from the same client. Note that you
have the client resource in the director config set to default
value of 1 for "Maximum Concurrent Jobs"
https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/Director.html#config-Dir_Client_MaximumConcurrentJobs
and on the client config you have the same setting set with a
default to 20
https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/FileDaemon.html#config-Fd_Client_MaximumConcurrentJobs.
If you're writing to tape I think you're better off if you can
enable spooling and make sure you have enough spool capacity to
store the full jobs before they get written to tape unless you
have a tape library that can write to multiple tapes at once and
the jobs go to different tapes. If you're writing to disk or
S3/ceph then this does not matter.
