WD Velociraptor Harddrives

What is the difference between these two velociraptor drives?

WD3000GLFS and WD3000HLFS

Thanks

A brief google suggests the GLFS has a non-standard connector location (which might be trouble for enclosures or swap-bays) and that the HLFS has a standard location (compared to the rest of their drives) and a backing plane for mounting in servers or something. Possibly.

Go check out Western Digital's site, or google it.

GLFS won't slide into an external SATA enclosure that doesn't have cables internally but just ports at the back (or any rackmount server applications too I'd assume). HLFS will.
