Here's my take...it's more about price than performance, correct? I don't think there are many 4TB SSD's less than $190, so although this one is more performance than your enclosure can handle, enclosures are cheap and it's cheaper to get a faster one down the road (or even now, as 20Gbps enclosures are $23) than to be disappointed later when you wish you got a faster one.
So, get this now, get whatever enclosure you want and be happy.

"It is single-sided... It uses QLC flash memory, which makes it slower than many other PCIe 4.0 SSDs that use TLC. Crucial lists the performance as Read: 4800 MB/s, Write:4100 MB/s, and an endurance of 800 TBW, all of which is at the lower end for this class of drive. It does have a 5 year limited warranty, though."

Unless you're using a more expensive thunderbolt-compatible enclosure (and even then....), I'd save your money and look at something cheaper.

Blackmagic Speed test on my MacBook Air M2, I got 850 write and 550 read using that same enclosure and this 4TB SSD.
I don't know why the read is so slow.
