I think its gonna be hard to find that many old laptop drives a once...
Just wonder what the reason is to not consider SAS in this? Heat, connectivity or power draw?
We have only SATA ports in these servers and adding SAS controller is waste of resources. We usually use VelociRaptor drives for this purpose, but we are unable to source them for reasonable price from our suppliers
New, Used,...?
You can for example look on Ebay, Servershop24.de, Aliexpress for some offer.
Maybe the WD "official" Store to the have offer to.
If you looking for new how much do you need?
NOT SATA, but look at this guy's auctions. Several 10K 900GB and 600GB drives in 20x package size. Doesn't get cheaper. Every day new auctions. Why would you want to use SATA drives? Get cheap SAS2 SC213 or 216 backplanes and throw your SATA away Super cheap Supermicro CSE-216 cases are on eBay as well together with SAS backplanes.
Look for the seagate st9250610ns--solid 250GB drive that's available cheap--especially in quantity. I would contact a seller and negotiate as the space in the warehouse is usually worth more than the drives so you should be able to get them at well under $10/ea:
