MBP Mid 2017 External SSD Enclosure

I have a 480GB MBP memory module. This is an Apple only form factor. I'd like to use it in an external enclosure, but can't seem to find one. Unlike most SSDs that are Hershey Bar shaped with the connectors on the short side, the Apple module is more soap bar shaped with the connectors on the long side. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

See OWC/MacSales well ahead of the curve all things Mac, with excellent customer support.

Thanks for the reply but OWC support has stated they do not have enclosures for the 22=34 pin connector on that proprietary module.

Correct. There are no enclosures for that SSD...if there were, OWC would have it. The only way to use this proprietary Apple SSD style is within that non-touchbar model (MBPro 2016 or 2017). If it is any consolation, the SSD will likely fail anyway since the SSDs in this particular model have an extremely high rate of failure.
