Well, technically the Eagle is a 10.5" disk. Other Fujitsus, like the 2284, are really 14" (and they have a nice transparent cover over the HDA so you can see the disks spin and the heads seek...) Most 5.25" SMD drives are rather modern and have data rates too high for the older Emulex (and other brand) SMD controllers. Newer Emulex SMD controllers, like the QD33 and QD34, don't have a problem with the high-data-rate SMD drives. Tim.
