Not sure if there is place to put more disks.
Also these are special variety of SCSI disk and you probably have to
buy them from the manufacturer, so it would cost few times more.

No worry there were a lot of money left from the original donations
that are supposed to cover server expenses as well as backup solutions.

As bonus, there is no need to use raid mirroring for "incoming".
