The cheapest solution out there that isn't a Supermicro-like server chassis, is DAS in the form of HP or Dell MD-series which top out at 15 or 16 3" drives. I can only chain 3 units per SAS port off a HBA in either case.
The new Dell MD11XX series is 24 2.5" drives and you can chain 3 of them together off a single controller. If your drives are dual ported you can use both HBA ports for redundant paths.
