The adapter you listed is a B connector. But the drive is a B + M. And the attached drive picture on the blue stat mat has different pin counts than the drive in the first link. I did a quick look around on here for a thread with a lot of details about that but no luck finding it. Maybe someone else will remember where it is.

Thanks Mark, glad I did not press to hard there are so many hard to keep up

I've been struggling to keep up with the all the different variations. We discussed it a bit here -

M.2 - I'm struggling to keep up.

Not only are there a dozen different versions of M.2 drives. I have a refurbished Dell where I ordered this 240 GB M.2 when it seems to need this? (The machine/BIOS doesn't even see the first one.) Really? Now even the same modules aren't interchangeable? Pffft! I'm struggling to keep up here.

The specs for that adapter mention "Support NGFF M.2 SSD with Key B including Key B+M"

What do you expect from...

Shanghai, China
I'd rather pay a few extra bucks and use a North American seler.

By the time it comes you have forgotten and a package shows up, its like a box of chocolates you never know what your going to get.

Where do you think the NA seller gets them from?

Of course, they do. It is the time to get shipped was my point.

Oddly enough, my experience with shipping from China has only been at the two jaw-dropping extremes. I have, on many occasions, received things more quickly from China than I have from suppliers on the same continent I am. On others, it's been a months-long wait for the most trivial item.

Depending on what the item was, and how quickly I actually needed to have turn around, I might go either way. Express shipping from China has always been unusually fast compared to what I expected.

Express shipping from China has always been unusually fast compared to what I expected.

That was when the Chinese government was subsidizing air freight to the US. It used to be almost faster than domestic supply but they aren't doing that (as much?) any more. Although, some shipments come by air the majority are coming via boat these days instead. With China's economy bogging down I am wondering if it will resume.

Last month, I ordered a custom DAC cable from FS.com - a QSFP+ to 4X-SFP+, which had to be made and shipped from China - The shipping estimate was 3-12 weeks, but I got it in about 6 days - a pleasant surprise for sure.

. . . made and shipped from China - The shipping estimate was 3-12 weeks, but I got it in about 6 days - a pleasant surprise for sure.

That's the sort of experience I've had on multiple occasions, too. Mind you, I'm not even trying to claim that this is the norm, but it hasn't been an exceedingly rare exception, either.

Depending on how pressed for time I am makes my decision about rolling the "shipping from China wait time" dice.
