Comment (by robe):

 This one is an SSD, and seems doable.  For this might want to just put in
 one of the servers and if we like buy 8 more. Or just use 4 drive bays on
 each and split in two.
 Or take a risk and buy 16.

 https://www.ebay.com/itm/204064953402 ( Micron 1TB SATA SSD 2.5" 6GBPS
 Hard Drive Fits HP DL360 DL380 DL385 G5 G6 G7 )

 Since the size is 1TB per drive, we could maybe buy 8 ($60 / drive) = $480

 If we go with 16 would be 16*60 = $960 (which would cover both servers).

 These are cheaper cause they are refurbished and not HP brand, but I think
 that's all fine.  the servers are old so we don't need the drives to last
 longer than the server and from reading reviews, none HP drives work just
 as well in HP servers as HP drives
