If you've never played with server class machines, you'd never know some of the crazy stuff they can do. I learned today (from some drives I got on ebay) that multipath SAS is a thing. One drive connected to a single backplane talking to two HBAs. Like a little network for hard drives. Crazy

4TB drives are such a steal compared to what a 12TB+ drive sells for right now, but it only makes sense if you have a server that can fit a ton of drives.
