Alternative to Intel RES2CV360

So, I've been using the PCIe version of these guys as a way to fill 24 drive Norco cases. The non-pcie version is a cluster cuss, mostly because drives drop as it bends.

I think I bought them all, and they've become increasingly difficult to source.

Is there a more modern expander card that fits a PCIe slot and can drive 24 drives? What are you guys using?

Have you looked at HP 12gb version? Little pricey though. Even the used ones sell for over $200+

No, not really sure what it is. I basically have had trouble finding high port count devices.
