Well, Something like this.
http://www.dabs.com/products/startech-com-5-25--trayless-sata-bay-4RY4.html?q=trayless%20drive%20rack&src=16#findsimilar
Hot-swap any 3.5in SATA hard drive easily from any computer with a
5.25in bay.
This 3.5in SATA hard drive hot-swap bay allows you to install a 3.5in
SATA drive (SATA, SATA II, SATA III-6Gbps) in an available/unused 5.25in
drive bay. To remove the drive, it's as simple as opening the front
panel door; to re-insert a drive, simply insert the drive (connector
first) until the door closes.
The hot swap bay offers a trayless design that makes it the ideal
solution for quick and easy drive removals and insertions as part of a
system building process, or integration into rackmount systems or
industrial environments.
Also a perfect addition for operating system image deployment and any
task that requires being able to quickly access large volumes of data on
the fly, the hot swap bay provides everything you need to expedite
important projects while maintaining a reliable storage solution.
With support for SATA HDD speeds up to 6.0 Gbps, the mobile
rack/backplane is fully compatible with RAID installations to ensure
maximum performance and versatility for enhanced storage applications.
Designed to provide a durable and reliable operating experience, the
mobile rack features a 50,000+ insertion rating.
What's in the Box - 1 - 5.25" Tray-Less SATA Hot-Swap Bay
- 2 - Key
- 1 - Screw Kit
- 1 - Instruction Manual

Hi.
It depends which ones you're using. certain ones made by CiT for 3.5
drives were trayless i.e you inserted the drive, then you screw screws
in to the chassy to hold the drive in place, then insert covers to hide
the screws. Most of the others i've seen are tray based. for 2.5 drives,
most are trayless. What's your budget? perhaps i can find one for you?

Mo,
Thanks for that.
Are the ones you have used trayless? In otherwords, are they the type
where you just insert a sata drive in to the drawer or do they have
holders?
Ideally, I would like a trayless one to avoid screwing the drives in
to holders before inserting them.

Hi. Yes, i've used quite a few. generally, you can get them cheaper or
at the same price including delivery from ebay. I wouldn't recommend icy
box, their kit can be a bit flimsy, design isn't consistent. CiT are ok,
as well as akasa. Generic ones off ebay are also ok, look for ones that
say they have a solid aliminium design which means they're generally
made out of metal.
I hope this helps.
all the best,
Mo.
