Question Brand new NVME Drive "Not Accessible. Incorrect Function"

[SerialSniper14]

I recently purchased a brand new Mushkin Pilot-E 2TB m.2 NVME SSD from Newegg. This is to be a fast, portable, and compact SSD for photo and video storage so I also purchased a NVME USB 3.1 enclosure from Amazon (confirmed that they are both m-key compatible).

I plugged the m.2 drive into the enclosure and then into my PC via USB type-C port. The drive popped up but I got the "Not Accessible. Incorrect Function" error code. It does show up in Disk Management, but there are no options to create a new volume or format the drive. I did try to use Type-C-to-Type-A adapter but that didn't help. There is a little red light on the m.2 drive's board that may be a debug light but I can't find anything on the manufacturer site about it.

My guess is either the drive is DOA or the enclosure is crap. What are some non-hardware troubleshooting steps I could try? If all else fails, my last resort is to take my PC apart and plug the drive directly into the mobo but I have several components in the way.

Windows 10
Ryzen 3600
MSI X470 Gaming Pro Carbon
MSI 2070 Super Gaming X

I have another nicer one on the way but it's a month out, this is a stopgap.

I haven't see that one before and since I don't read Spanish I can't tell what the 'bad' reviews are saying.

i understand Portuguese, which is similar enough to spanish. Just ppl complaining about compatibility issues and just straight up not working. Some ppl who got it working, it would stop working after like 20 minutes.
