    Finally starting to hit the higher capacities i.e. 250Gb upwards.

    The article contradicts itself though. At the start it says the 2.5" range goes up to 128gb, but then later on says they go to 256gb?

    At the beginning of the Article it is talking about the P200 range.
    Further down it then is talking about the C200 range hense the difference.

    The P200 is designed for servers.
    The C200 is designed for notebooks. Hope that clears it up for you.

    It was written by The Register so watch out for ambiguity.

    I presume you can buy adaptors, like the ones to fit hard drives in 5 1/2 drive bays

    That's right. Like the heatsink that comes on a Velociraptor.
