FWIW, we have a few Quanta S210-X22RQ[1], which are very similar - 2U, 12 3.5" bays in front, 2*2.5 in back. We'll try a similar configuration to what you propose, though with only 8 spinning disks (3TB WD RED) and one SSD (256GB Samsung 840 pro). 2*10GE, 2*Xeon E5-2630, 128GB RAM. > an interesting setup could be 12 spinning disks, with 2 very fast SSDs > used for journals and OS.
