Ack, I thought it was a standard size thing, never even thought about it 
... I ordered the drives from HP, with the server ...

From:

http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/drives-enclosures/index.html?jumpid=ex_hphqglobal_wwentsem/Proliant

I'm guessing what I got were the 2.5" form factor, vs the 3.5" ... and 
based on that same page, looks like I can get 2.5" SATA also ... i thought 
the 'small size' was a SAS feature :(
