J4400 is using LSI/SiliconStor SS1320 Interposer cards to handle SATA HD With past experience, we have better luck with Hitachi SATA then WD SATA HD. Sun was using Hitachi HD, too.
If you have me to choose, 7200 RPM SAS HD is still the best choice. Most of our customers use pure SAS HD on our JBOD.

I'm not familiar with the J4400 at all, but isn't Sun/Oracle using -like NetAPP- Interposer cards and thus handling the SATA drives more or less like SAS ones?
