Can’t fit WD Blue SA510 SATA SSD M.2 into UGREEN NVMe/SATA enclosure. Any ideas?

[Asdrojas]

I attempted to install a WD Blue SA510 SATA SSD (2TB, M.2) into a UGREEN M.2 NVMe/SATA SSD enclosure that I bough. I made a quick video of myself trying, but it doesn't seem to fit right I applied considerable force. Are they incompatible, or am I doing something wrong?

Are you sure both the drive and the enclosure are SATA ? The most common interface for NVMe these days  is PCIe, not SATA.

That drive is is B+M based on the video. The enclosure is verified to work with B+M drives. 

 

It looks like the OP is just holding it too flat and not trying hard enough.

It's probably the wrong key type. PCIE SATA won't fit with a PCIE NVME enclosure.

Yep finnaly I could place the ssd in the enclosure. Feeling like a fool now but I appreciate everybody who answered.

Thanks

So, I was thinking of upgrading my laptop's main ssd to a 2TB one. I asked to chatgpt, since a few weeks ago I successfully upgraded my ram using chatgpt's instructions. I gave the cpu-z report and asked for the best compatible ssd for my laptop, and it told me to use a SATA 2TB SSD. So, I cloned my main disk to this new ssd, and when I diasemby my pc and was about to replace the new ssd with the one in my laptop, I found up that the ssd in it was an NVMe B key. I told that to chatgpt, and it told me the ssd I bought wouldn't be compatible. But at least the enclosure it suggested is compatible with NVMe B key. also the ssd heatsink in my laptop only accommodates the small ssds. I'm gonna purchase a new heatsink from Amazon and cross my fingers that it will be compatible with my laptop. I also wasted hours attempting to install the ssd into the enclosure and nobody responded to my post in r/techsupport, so I am gratefull to everybody who answered here.
