  This versus T5 or T7?

    The T5 is msata so it's more compact but not as fast (still good for like 300MB/s though).

    The T7 is an nvme drive similar to the one in this deal and should be comparable speed, just get whichever is cheaper between the WD & the T7.

    Funny enough you can't buy bare msata drives anymore so if you are on the market for one to upgrade an old device or for one to use in a micro PC similar to raspi (some use msata for whatever reason) it's best to get a T5 and then just open it to get the drive out.

    T5 is SATA drive which can only do like 500-550MB/s, this one or T7 is defs better

  What drive would be inside. Would it run faster in a computer? Tempted to shuck one to upgrade a laptop

    You're better off buying the WD Blue (SN550) directly rather than shucking as it's cheaper and you will retain your warranty:

      ideally would like the nvme enclosure too - for $16 it would have been good but as you point out issue is voiding warranty

      looks like drive is glued into the sandisk and the thermal pads would be obvious it was shucked
