Using laptop Drives in a Desktop PC.

Just a quick question. I'm looking at build a Mini ITX build and have one of the NZXT h210 cases so my 3.5 Drives are limited to 1. Just wondering if there's any performance difference between a 7200rpm 2.5 drive and a 3.5 7200RPM Drive ?

I was interested in the Firecuda drives for example.

Thanks for the Reply, I guess given the limits of the case I'll likely use a Large 3.5 Drive for Gaming along with some SSD's for the games that demand them (Star Citizen for example). But could pop in a few Firecudas for storage and older games.

I actually found a little 3.5inch Drive adapter that allows me to stack another 3.5 drive on top of my existing one. $15 but not sure how long it will take to get to me. I'll keep you posted.
