HGST ZeusRAM Z4 3.5" 8GB SAS Hard Drive 6Gb/s MLC Enterprise SSD RAM Z4RZF3D-8UC
Listed at $445. Sent a BO of $298 and it was accepted within minutes.
Told a friend that was also in the market and they bid in the low $200 range and received a counteroffer of $400. You might be able to do a bit better than me, but I wouldn't try too much lower.
It will be interesting to see if this helps or hurts performance on a ZFS RAID 10 array that will consist of 4 x 400GB Sandisk Lightning Ultra Gen IIs (SLC and Dual port SAS2 to start, but SAS3 when I find a good controller at a decent price. Also note the quoted specs are for single port SAS).
If it doesn't help the pool above I'm pretty sure it will help a bulk data SATA3 SSD pool that I'm planning.
