Yeah, I use something like this, a no-brand enclosure.

Cheap but reliable external SSD for RPis in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I'm using a couple of cheap Kingston A400 for my setup (120 and 480 GB) and they work just fine. One thing I noticed is that the 120 GB one's health went down to 92%, from 100%, in "just" one year (smart parameter). But that's implies a lifetime of more that 12 years, so I'm not excessively concerned.

EDIT: of course, just after writing this comment the smaller SSD began to behave strangely (errors in dmesg).

Google dropping ublock origin represents a flawless David vs Goliath victory for its developer in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

It's been ages since I saw an ad on my browser. Without any extension. I'm sorry for you.
