I use in my Server a trayless hard disk rack, something like this: http://www.raidsonic.de/en/pages/products/mobile-racks.php?we_objectID=4343
I wonder if there is trayless external hard drive enclosure available? I searched but nothing turned up so far.

I'm not aware of any that the drive goes inside like you're showing, but I have one of these and realy like it:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817707170
The drive just slots in "naked".
Actually, it looks like the company that makes the tray you described also has "docks", too: http://www.icydock.com
They've got some sweet looking multi-disk external enclosures there, as well as "docks" like the StarTech that I have.
tj111 : I have one very similar to this and I love it. Mine taks 2.5" or 3.5" SATA's, its great for swapping drives in and out, especially if you need to do any data recovery work.Rob Allen : I have the Thermaltake BlacX version and it works very well.From Evan Anderson -
You could do a visual search on Google Images, like this one:
Perhaps you are lucky and can spot a model which is the right one for you.

There are several companies that manufacture hard drive cradles that you just plug a drive into directly. The ones I have seen are single-drive only, so may not be exactly what you're looking for.

The Drobo is just such a device, though it also provides a RAID controller.

I have a Thermaltake BlacX eSata. I use it for backups.
