I have plenty of backups for my desktop, but in the past have
also found it could be useful, or helpful for diagnostics, when
disaster struck, to be able to pull out a disk and connect it via
a USB adaptor to a laptop.

Now that my operating system lives on this:

WD Black SN850X 1TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 Gen4 x4 NVMe SSD

I have no idea if such a thing is possible.

Comments?

I have one of these which I keep a 'spare' M.2 NVMe SSD in, it gets a
bit warm, but the probably all do anyway. it's tool-less case slides
open, and instead of screw to hold M.2 it has a rubber plug.
