Any recommendations for decent used external SAS units? I have literally filled my tower with drives and need _moar_ space. Something used I can get on the cheap is great, something new that isn't awful is also fine. I need to ideally reclaim some space in the unit, for that matter... I can get creative, but in doing so I'll be in "these aren't spots where hard drives were meant to go" territory.
4 to 8 is ideal, I'll never complain about larger.
