Second this. The DC S3700 are very good.

But, I tend to use the Intel 320 which are often available on amazon for 
just over $1/GB up to 600GB. They don't have as good of specs as the 
DC3700 (which are newer), but they do have the capacitor bank to flush 
on power outage, and they are very value priced for SOHO. They do quite 
well as ZIL devices. We use them extensively.
