Lower power usage and smaller and maaaaaaaaybe better reliability. I’d probably do it if it was cost competitive… but it’s not yet.
Smaller doesn't matter if they're going in a 3.5" tray. There are some models that only come with 2.5" trays, but go figure, the only 2.5" model that isn't a 5-figure all-flash enterprise-scale model is one of our least popular models
Not sure whether adding more power consuming devices results in less power consumption, though. I guess it depends on drives power usage and files use.
