Looks good for me too.

Pricing from France (to ship to Marseille):
- 2 x 2TB WD RE4 64Mo (WD2003FYYS) = 2 x 195€ = 390€
- 1 x 256GB SSD Crucial M4 (SSDSC2BW180A3L) = 199€
So, with shipment: 597€ (tax included)

I checked, there is available ports:
[root at valstar ~]# dmidecode | grep -i sata
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT0
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT1
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT2
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT3
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT4
	Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT5
[root at valstar ~]#
For now, we just use 0 and 1.
I just hope that [2-5] are not broken like on old ecosse.
