I would start with something like this

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2U-24-bay-2-5-Supermicro-Server-X8DTH-iF-2x-Xeon-Quad-Core-32GB-RAM-SAS2-216EL1-/222132081393?hash=item33b81a92f1:g:UzYAAOSwR5dXSQVw

With it being 2U you can then pop out the motherboard and go with anything
more modern you wanted in terms of the motherboard/cpu/ram.

$1200 all in would certainly get you a nice system with that as the base.
