Just check the listing, one person brought 6.
I "had" to buy the other 4 S3700 SSD.

what do people do with these random 400gb drives, i'm hoping they're going into 24+ bay chassis?

Dang, I was too slow.

Lots of uses for them. ZFS ZIL. Ceph cache-tier pools. Local storage for running VM images in Openstack clusters. Small/fast array storage. I could go on and on...

I have a samsung evo 500GB SSD. Is there that much benefit having 6Gb/s versus a 3Gb/s SSD?

Yes but if you have a 500gb evo... you have a 6gbps drive.
