Not really sure if this is a deal since I've been out of the loop for a while now.
I can't grab it myself, but maybe someone else would like it...

Hi,
I was lucky to get a new IBM DS3524 w/ dual controllers for next to nothing, and now want to fill it up with drives :-)
It seems like in some cases, SAS3 drives can be had for the same cost as generic SAS2 drives, while opening up better future expansion and performance. The main caveat...

I believe they...

HGST FLASHMAX II VIR-M2-LP-4800-2B 4.8TB PCI-E SSD Flash Drive
LSI 1.2TB NYTRO WARP LSI00429 ST1200KN0012 05-25614-00 NWD-BFH6-120

I want to build a setup that will store both relatively static content (backup + media) on magnetic media with solid-state caching, as well as supporting VM storage and operation (all...
