What are the odds of a PCIe SSD completely dying?
I have a Sandisk SSD here that I pulled from a dead 2013 Macbook air and I'm not sure what to do with it.

I bought a cheap $5 adapter from china that adapts it to 4x pcie but it doesn't even enumerate on the PCI bus, but does get a tiny bit warm.
There are other adapters in the ~$30 range but I don't know whether it's worth trying again or not.

SSD Model: SD6PQ4M-256G-1021

I know the device isn't bootable on my motherboard's chipset, but it should at least show up in the device tree right?
