Dragon Steel Mods take a look at the UNITEK eSATA/SATA One Touch Backup Multi-Dock, allowing you to hot swap SATA drives via USB:

If you are like us at dragonsteelmods, then you have a plethora of hard drives lying around. Keeping track of the contents of naked drives is problematic as one needs to install the hard drive to a computer to view the contents. That can done by either hooking the drive into the PC, which involves opening your computer or inserting the drive into a external enclosure. Another option is using some hard drive adapter or dock.
USBGeek carries the UNITEK eSATA/SATA One Touch Backup Multi-Dock, which allows the use of SATA drives as hot swappable and plug and play. Plus it allows the SATA drive to run at native speeds when attached via a eSATA connection. It even supports SATA II allowing transfer rates of up to 3 Gbps. Don’t have an eSATA connection, don’t worry, Unitek provides a eSATA connector bracket which can be installed inside your PC. If you are lacking a SATA connector, the dock also works with a USB connector. However, this does limit transfer rates to up to 480 Mbps
