Advice Needed: Choosing an NVMe SSD and USB Enclosure

I'm not planning to upgrade the internal HDD of my custom PC, so I'm looking to purchase an NVMe SSD and use it with a USB enclosure to connect to my USB 4 (40Gb/s) or USB 3.1 (10Gb/s) ports. I also want this drive to be compatible with my Mac Mini M2. I'm pretty clueless about different brands and what makes a good SSD or enclosure. I'm currently browsing Amazon's best sellers and considering a capacity of 1 TB, though 500 GB would be okay if it's cheaper. I'm aware I need to match the SSD speeds with the enclosure's USB interface speeds. USB4 enclosures are quite pricey at around $50-$100, while USB3.1 options are more affordable at about $15-$20. Here are some SSDs I'm looking at: 1) Western Digital Black 1TB for $115, 2) Western Digital Blue 500GB for $60 (or 1TB for $100), 3) Timetec 512GB for $50, and 4) Silicon Power 1TB for $75. I would really appreciate any recommendations to help me make a decision. Thanks!
