Any recommendations for SSD (M.2 2242 or 2260 form factor)?

Admittedly being a bit lazy, I wanted to see if there was any obvious go to for an SSD in a M.2 2260* form factor?

*2242 is also an option.

 

It seems I am looking for somewhat of an unusual item as the majority of SSDs are M.2 2280.

 

M.2 SSD 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110 form factor

 

I've got a thin / low-profile passive cooling build for a particularly unusual build and the motherboard I have at hand unfortunately doesn't have the popular form factor.

Maybe I should add that I am looking for data transfer speed as a priority over storage capacity.

 

I attached a modern NVMe M.2 2280 (Seagate FireCuda 530) to this board already (to get things running for now) and everything is fine, but I obviously can't seat it on the board --- and I'm also not going to waste this kind of hardware on this build either.

 

Just need this last component so I can wrap this build up and close it up.
