Instead of looking for a removable SSD consider setting up some kind of syncing and backup solution. A removable ssd doesn’t protect you from theft or ransomware. I use a combination of time machine, backblaze and syncthing to make sure all my data is synced across my machines and backed up locally and in the cloud.


I also use Time Machine to an external drive.

4TB Sabrent Rocket M.2 SSDs with adaptors don't come cheap. Getting that much storage soldered onto the logic board is even more expensive.


A removable SSD does ensure that my laptop doesn't become trash after I use it long enough. For many people (myself included) no computer can truly feel "perfect" unless it can be run in relative perpetuity.
