These were originally built as a VSAN which I plan on replicating once I build a proper home vSphere environment. Each of the 740s have about 12TB raw in them but I'd like to load the 8 empty bays in each, anyone know where I can get a stack of cheap/used 1.8TB 2.5" SAS drives? I care more about capacity compared to speed as I plan on making the 440 a standalone all flash host.

ELI5 coz I'm not in IT. Why would anyone throw out of warranty items and not use them if they are well specd? If it breaks it does not matter that it is down with warranty or down without warranty.
