I remember that back then, many people (in my environment), said something like: "Yes, the 2,5' IDE drives are more expensive, but the quality is so much better, and the (physical) size is much smaller, and these 2 categories makes them better purchase then any 3,5' IDE drive".

Can't confirm - i experienced more 2.5 in HDD troubles than 3.5 in - also 2.5' was way slower than 3.5' (lower RPM and other issues). So in overall some people removed internal drive and placed 3.5' drive in FDD place and connecting FDD externally trough floppy port.
