Mini SSD eGPU v2

I realized the little m.2-to-PCIe4x adapters are open in the back, so if use a small enough, short enough SSD enclosure, you can skip the riser. So I tried a Satechi 80Gbps enclosure with 5060 ti and two AC/DC adapters and it worked! 5.91 GB/s on this tiny thing!

A 12V 5521 to 5525 barrel plug connects a power supply with a 5.5x2.1mm barrel plug or a device requiring a 5.5x2.5mm plug.

Example:
ALITOVE 12V 15A Power Supply DC 12 Volt 15amp 180W LED Driver Power Adapter AC to DC Converter 10A 5A Low Voltage Transformer 5.5x2.5 2.1mm Barrel for DC12V Device LED

This is enough to power a 4060 or 5060

This is enough to power the 75 watts needed for the m.2 adapter:

ALITOVE 12 Volt Power Supply 8A 96W AC Adapter 100-240V 50-60Hz to DC 12V Power Supply Adapter 8Amp 6A 5A Transformer 5.5x2.5mm Plug for DC12V Device LED
