For stocking up on new ones, how about this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-ST373455LC-15000RPM-Ultra320-Internal/dp/B001665WAK/ref=sr_1_7?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1391784994&sr=1-7

in addtion to being available new, the 15K RPM would (I think) speed up system response.

But, is there any problem with mixing 10K RPM and 15K RPM drives in a shadowset?  (Except for the obvious fact that the slower disk would determine system response.)
