Hi, just bought an ACASIS 40Gbps enclosure and it is DOA already. What other recommendation do you have? Are ORICO enclosures faster and more reliable?
 
I use the following, but its out of stock. $23.99 at the time.

You have to be careful.....I think some of them support M.2 SATA only, some support NVMe, some support drives no larger than 1 TB, etc.

You have to fiddle with very tiny screws, maybe thermal tape, etc. Took me 15 minutes or so to get it up and running as I recall, but was impressed when finished.

I suspect many of the choices you see are effectively identical, with different brand names slapped on them. Commodities as usual with computer gear.
