2K - Case + Backplanes 1K - CPU, MB, RAM 3.3K - 45 1TB drives at 75 ea --
6.6K - 45TB RAID0 If I want it to be even somewhat sane, I'd add every 4th drive as spare/parity, which drops to 33G
$6600 / 35TB gives $.19/GB
That's higher than the .12 from the 2 year old BackBlaze box, but not much.
If instead we go with the $179 3TB WD drives, we can get slightly better than the pod pricing.
($179 * 45) / (45 * 3TB * .75) in dollars per gigabyte = $.08/GB
