These were originally built as a VSAN which I plan on replicating once I build a proper home vSphere environment. Each of the 740s have about 12TB raw in them but I'd like to load the 8 empty bays in each, anyone know where I can get a stack of cheap/used 1.8TB 2.5" SAS drives? I care more about capacity compared to speed as I plan on making the 440 a standalone all flash host.

Jesus christ your lucky, those sell for some serious dough. I don't even see Rx40 on the second hand market much, mostly going from Rx10/20's to Rx30's now.

Shit I got an r940 hand me down that's collecting dust cause of California electricity prices lol. Anyone around the bay who wants to buy it for a discount let me know 🤣
