Upgraded my lab - so I'm parting with a SuperMicro CSE-216 chassis (with EL1 backplane) + Rails & PSU's with the SuperMicro JBOD board. Wanting $1500 - thats $62.50 drive (But thats with chassis/PSU's/JBOD board.)- thats 250 alone - so its really close to $52/drive. - . Another $100 - I'll included an LSI 8e SAS3 pcie card with the interconnect cable and couple extra spare drives. These had 5yr up time - but are all still showing 90%+ life left.
Willing to ship for actual cost - I've got a good 2u shipping box.
