SOmewhat recently I toyed with an idea of HDDs with an 'interposer' which would be just a dumb ATA2iSCSI interface, with Ethernet or WiFi connectivity.
That would allow you to place those drives literally anywhere and with a minimal footprint.
Sadly it would be too costly for the home usage (I assume about $30/unit at best) and for the enterprise usage... 1Gbit is too slow, 10Gbit is too hot and bulky and then you can't sell a $3 plastic case for $100 'vendor approved with light-path(r)(tm) diagnostic indication' for each drive.
