Overall I think you're trying to save money on entirely the
wrong
things. Get a few good high-capacity disks and a low-power
enclosure
and don't worry about buying a SAS HBA (or if you do, buy one
which
doesn't limit you to 2TB per drive).
Ok, lets run the numbers for icybox
http://www.raidsonic.de/data/datasheet/raidon/EN/datasheet_iS2880_e.pdf
I'll probably need this model, iS2880-8S-U5D - 245$ on amazon.
What do 8x 2.5'' spindles give you that 5x 3.5'' don't? Do you
need
the extra performance?
That was only the model with 8 drives on that website.
I don't think there there are descent enclosures with >=8 disks and
<400$
You do realize there's a difference between 2.5'' and 3.5'' drives,
right?
I'm with both hands for 3.5
But where to put them?! Nothing descent even closer available that would fit
$1000 target.
What's the problem with this thing:

How do you power it?? There's no power supply so unless it can be fitted
into a preexisting machine with a few spare Molex connectors, what do
you do??
