The 2.5" drives are only available up to about 160gb, and the price is a bit steep up at that end. We are competing with the likes of LTO 400/800 drives here... Also, the higher capacity 2.5" drives often do need an additional power supply, even if it's just an additional usb connection. As for durability I'd definitely prefer the 2.5" form factor though.
