Adapter to read MacBook Air PCie SSD

I am looking for an adapter that will enable me to read/write the content of the PCie SSD from a late 2013 MacBook Air. Most adapters I have found online do the opposite: allow third-party (typically M2) SSDs to be plugged into the Mac. Does anyone know of a source?

Earlier Mac models

Thanks woodmeister50 -


I'm aware of this product. Unfortunately it's no cheaper in the UK, and not economically viable for single use. The data on the SSD is not required: I just need to wipe it, reformat it and reinstall the OS. I cannot do it in the Mac it came from as it is locked and cannot enter recovery mode without a password I have lost. This may well prevent me wiping it outside the Mac as well, but I'd rather not pay $80 to find out! I'll just scrap it and the Mac instead.
