in an attempt to better understand what brand of m.2 ssd i have, i unknowingly corrupted the windows 10 os i had. if i was to format the ssd, would that give me drive options to install the os to? or do i need to get a whole new ssd?

HWiNFO would have done that for you. Or you could have opened your laptop and looked at the brand label.

as long as you didn't actually damage the ssd, you can just reinstall

ok so the os has been installed on my hdd, but i dont want to put the m.2 ssd directly back into my laptop without checking for discrepancies. I have a usb to sata cable used for fixing my seven year old hdd, i was just wondering if there was a such thing as a usb to m.2 cable to ever exist?
