Reviewsre: Doesn't fit into standard hot-swap bays of any variety. on
Western Digital Velociraptor

That is a serious design flaw for my purposes.  I have about 100 Raptors mounted in hot swap bays and Supermicro servers.  I was shopping for a dozen more this week.  Now I find out that WD has dropped the Raptor and eliminated our choice to use the Velociraptor.  That means no sale for WD.  I cannot believe their engineering stupidity.

It looks like we are stuck with 7200rpm sata drives now.
