suddenly out of nowhere my WD blue 1 TB SSD NVMe hooked inside an external USB 3 enclosure is no longer recognized by windows !

this video is a great example (sorry for the bad music)
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qS51xOGopys

i tried to replace the enclosure but still the same problem ! i cant even reformat it but i dont have a PC to format it from there !...

one time only it showed in my computer under a random drive name but inaccessible giving the same error, but i cant even access it in diskpart or fix it there !

any help plz ? i think i shoved up that disk to 900 GB that may have caused it to die ?!...

thanks,

This video isn't an example.
You didn't provide the exact drive model.
We don't know if you can perform any power measurements on the board.

You said about formatting it - if there is no data needed then trash it and replace. If data is needed there are too many variables that could be wrong and you need to provide more info. Alternatively you can get an assessment from a professional recovery company who will have a much better chance to get access to it. But like I said already, if data is not important then just replace it
