BTW, it worked with an 8 TB SSD despite being listed as up to 4 TB.

The orico has a pretty decent heatsink lid in its price class but ts not the same as a full metal case or full m.2 heatsink for surface area.
They do make one sided pads, my jeyi m.2 heatsink had a red pad on the bottom that had a fabric type side to prevent sticking but likely at the cost of performance. You might find them on sale somewhere, or just get a stack of regular pads, they probably cost next to nothing.
I just end up with a pile of the things like the screws because every m.2 drive and enclosure comes with spares.

The entire thing, except for the heatsink and USB-C connector, is plastic. The SSD is held in place with rubber grommets, not a screw like most of these types of enclosures have. The moment you hold it in your hand and look inside, you can feel how cheaply made it is.
It does work, but I would not use it the way some have posted they are, constantly swapping drive modules in and out of it. If that's your intended use, you may want to look for something more robust.
Any current decent deals on a 1 TB M2 that you can recommend? Primary use for the computer is browsing.

Well its not that cheaply built for 10 dollars. I've seen worse. The thing with the gromet is that its just there to hold it down before the lid clamps down on it, so it doesn't have to be strong.
The alternative of screwing the m.2 down would mean that a stuck on lid due to old crusty thermal pad would be trouble. Could easily see users fracturing drives that way.
Well yea, but its 5x the price it better be good. The Orico is good for drives that don't get that hot, basically cheap qlc drives. High performance drives need a regular heatsink mod as stated above or entirely machined body to dissapate enough heat to not throttle under heavy workloads.
For the price of one Asus you can get 3 Oricos and 3 of these and still be under 50 after tax.

Simple design is best, I don't think even the asus will beat this cooling.

Some usb c charge cables are only usb 2.0, so use the short cable that comes with it and plug it directly to the machine to test, and or only use a good powered usb hub.
If the drives are dramless the write speeds can really suck over usb when nearly full, or when you sustain a write for an extended period, but the read speeds should still be faster than that.
