2.5" Drives are usually faster than their 3.5" counterparts at the same
rotational speed. They have smaller platters.
Also, 16 2.5" drives at 10kRPM will outperform 8 3.5" drives at 15kRPM
anyway.

There are no 140GB 15K RPM SAS drives. Seagate is just this month
shipping their very first 15K 2.5" SAS drives in 36 & 73GB sizes.
Hitachi doesn't offer 10K RPM 2.5" disks let alone 15K units.
I don't think IBM had much choice in drive formfactor this time around.
