iMac, 17,1 late 2015 SSD enclosure?

I have iMac late 2015, retina 5k 27inch, its broken but have managed to retrieve the SSD. The model number on the SSD is MZ-JPV512S/0A6. Can anyone recommend an enclosure that is compatible so I can try to retrieve my data?

External enclosure for Mac mini (Late 2014) SSD I need an external enclosure for Mac mini (Late 2014) (Macmini7,1) SSD I'm removing, and I'm not sure which type of drive enclosure to get. JAMF lists the SSD in the Mini as the Apple 256GB SSD SM0256G. From what I can tell the notches on the drive don't match any enclosures I have found so far. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Crucial SSD 2.5" won't mount in any enclosure Hey! So I replaced my HD in my 2012 MacBook Pro 2013 in January with a Crucial MX300 SSD. It's worked flawlessly. However, I upgraded to a 2013 MBP 15" today. I removed the SSD from my old Mac and placed in an enclosure, but it never mounts. I tried another enclosure. Same deal. If I go to disk utility, the 2 TB drive shows there but is greyed and and not mounting. If I put the drive back in the 2012 MBP, I'm golden again. So it's not the drive itself. I've also placed a HDD in both enclosures and the enclosures themselves work fine. Is there something about an SSD that I'm missing that it can't go in an enclosure and be recognized by Mac OS. I've also tried it on Mac OS Catalina, Mac OS High Serria and Windows 10 (just to see if it would mount) The drive is in Apple Mac OS Journaled format.

Options to connect an old MacBook Pro SSD Hello :) I have an old 2014 non functioning MacBook Pro, which still has data on the internal SSD. I want to remove the SSD and connect it to my new MacBook Air to retrieve all data. I found a few cases (e.g. ACASIS USB C 3.0 Enclosure for Apple Flash PCle SSDs), but unfortunately they are very very expensive here in Mexico where I live at the moment. I am wondering, if there are also cables that can help me achieve that? I am struggling finding the right adapter type etc... Thank you very much! Christof

Judging from this, you have a regular old 2.5" SATA SSD that's either 7mm or 9.5mm thick. Lots of choices on Amazon, Newegg and other sites:

This is what crucial says you should use for an upgrade so I'm assuming it matches what you have. But a picture would be nice.
