Mac Studio Storage Upgrade — Acasis Thunderbolt 5 SSD Enclosure Review

I recently upgraded the storage setup of my Apple Mac Studio by connecting a Thunderbolt 5 enclosure from Acasis. The Acasis TB501Pro is a versatile solution that works with all generations of M2 SSDs. It's a great way to expand your mac's storage without paying the Apple premium for it.
