I would consider buying used server and fill it up with hard drives. Then

We have some "used servers" laying around (and I'd much prefer to use
existing hardware), but we also have (or will have in the not far
future) about ten or more SATA drives to stick into this array and so
far I didn't find a case to put them all in. I got the following
pointers from another mailing list:

(18 drive bays)

(18 drives)
Together with the decommissioned MoBo's/CPU's/Memory we have, these
might do the trick.
Thanks for the advise.
