      This is one of your few possible drives...

        Something like: SC847E16-R1K28LPB on SuperMicro?

          This is another drive that you could consider. 15TB optimized for sequential workloads.

            Yes, that's definitely an option.

                I still very much doubt that you'll be able to get that much hardware for your price point.

                Even with Supermicro being a great contender here, your disks cost is going to be sky high.

                  Drives alone for this are going to cost you (assuming amazon prices - not VAT) $11,279.76.

                    Just had a look now:

                    24 * DC HC530 inc VAT = £12,503.53
                    1 x SC847E16-R1K28LPB inc VAT = £1,655.99

                    Total: £14,159.52

                    Just need to configure it in house.

                        I assumed that is already within the device?

                          You would have specs if so. What you linked looked only like the chassis.

                            Chassis is just the chassis. . . not the guts.

                              Those are the MB's that the chassis can fit.

                                Chassis implies none of those things. If you look, the chassis lists the kinds of motherboards it supports. It doesn't have a mobo, let alone CPU, RAM, etc.

                                SuperMicro you always buy through a dealer. Looking at SM's website is just about useless. Talk to PCM UK and have them assemble something for you, trying to do it yourself will be a nightmare and that's never how SM expects it to work.

                                  You could easily be adding an additional 2-6 K on top of what you estimated for just the chassis and drives.

                                    Would that PCM work also include OS setup/setting up the file system? So we just rack it in the office and turn it on...

                                      Makes sense, ill keep looking. This we could make a saving my getting smaller drives, say 8TB, but more of them?

                                        And where would you fit these lower capacity drives that take more bays?

                                          Maybe, but a lot more of them. What capacity do you actually need?

                                            That chassis does 36.
