I think I have seen this too, and was actually beginning to wonder if a box with the clunky connector was the only "official" way of doing it. I believe I read somewhere about bypassing the connector on the back of the drive and going straight inside with a ribbon cable. Not sure how this would be terminated though, or if it would have to be straight through or not.
I've done this once and IIRC it's straight through. But you need a terminator, because the drive just goes into FAULT condition if there's no terminator, or it's not connected to a controller.
