Just a quick question. Does anyone know if the 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives are interchangable? I know IDE drives weren't as the 2.5 had a 44pin and the 3.5" had a 40pin cable but I recently bought a new 2.5" SATA for an enclosure and the connectors seem the same as the 3.5" drives.
It just occured to me that they probably are compatible and that a low power 2.5" drive might be a good htpc option for cooler runnning, lower power comsumption and quieter operation.
