I was able to get my hands on a PowerVault D1200 MD1200, which looks like it's got 4 sas ports (1 in 1 out on each board, 2 boards total). Is this as simple as getting a 4 port SAS card:

IBM LSI SAS9201-16e 4-port miniSAS x8 PCIe 2.0 SAS Plug-in Card

What I'm reading indicates that Dell likes to have another Dell box for the management / raid side of things. I'm wondering if I'm better off going the HP D2600 route, as it's a ProLiant DL386 G6?

Any advice? I'm also reading that a PERC H810 Adapter may be a better route to go on the connection; as it can then use the Dell Management interface software.

I just spec'd this out recently.

Synology RS3614xs+ - http://www.synology.com/en-us/products/overview/RS3614xs+

Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SSD x10 - http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-Internal-Version-MZ-7KE1T0BW/dp/B00LF10KTE/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1405390800&sr=1-2&keywords=samsung+850

That puts you at 16k. Get 2 more SSDs for the caching slots. We are using 128 GB ssds since they don't need to be large. This set up is shared between 3 Dell R420 servers. With a total of 70 VMs (55 Windows 7, 15 server 2012/2008)

It is still important to backup. We use Unitrends to backup all of our machines.
