But, local BP wants $1505 per drive. This online business(www.perfdata.com) has them for $925(shipping included). We need at least 2 drives. With the online price, we could get 4 drives for only $690 more than 2 drives from the local BP. Am I wrong in wanting to buy them at the cheaper price online and then have the local BP install them?

Scott, Its easy to do and you can definitely do it yourselves. From the question, I don't know your technical skills on the iSeries so make sure you can answer these questions. I would assume you know you have slots to add the disks? If you are adding disks to an existing RAID set then the drives have to be the same types of drives already in the Raid set. Understand the difference between Starting RAID (or mirroring if that is your protection) and adding the units to the ASP (assume its the system ASP). I wouldn't be adding 35GB drives if you already have 8 and 17GB drives on the machine. You shouldnt be mixing 3 different types of drives for performance reasons. Have you been in DST before?
