Sorry, that's incorrect. I have, sitting here in front of me, a
Dell-branded Seagate Cheetah, 600GB (it's a few years old) 15k 3.5" drive.


if you take one of those apart, you will find ~63mm (2.5") disk platters inside, and an identical mechanism to the 2.5" 600GB 15000 rpm drive of the same generation, just sitting in a larger frame.
