Incorrect. The U1 drive cage will in fact hold a 1.6" drive in the lower slot.

I wouldn't want to run a 1.6" and a 1" together in there for heat
dissipation reasons (they will fit, I've tried, but they end up *very*
close together), however if the machine only has one disk in it, a
1.6" in the bottom slot will be fine.

Ed.
