Hi all I exchanged my 2nd m2 ssd into a bigger si ze but now its not recognized anymore by win11 and also in the bios it says n/a Its exactly the same PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 just more capacity. any ideas?

It came from my dead 2014 MBP. What form factor or whatever is this? The connector on it does not look like all my other M.2 drives. What kind of USB enclosure do I need to connect this to my new Mac?

I am thinking of upgrading my SSD but I don't know the compatability. What is its max capacity? What is its PCIE generation/version; is it gen 3 or gen 4? Thanks.
