If you want multiple drives, why do you want a laptop? Use a low-power desktop or a solid-state server like a GuruPlug or PogoPlug or something like that. But for 3½" HDDs you will need power supplies as well. Docks are for when you want to constantly remove and replace the disks. If they are meant to be permanently in use, put the drives into external enclosures. If I may say so, it sounds to me like you've not really thought this through or done any research at all.
