Your definition of small might be different from mine.

I call those large.

Those are nearly all 5.25 inch units with a lot of depth (empty space)

If by little you mean sized for 3.5" drives, that is the ticket.

I'll look again this weekend when I have more time.

What some of us have been saying is that we can find small ones, but  
they all use wall-warts, or they are quite expensive.
