Strange, and sorry to hear that. Do you happen to have a different USB 4 or Thunderbolt cable to test? Also, did you try another port?
I don’t have another cable to test, unfortunately. I tried the other side of my MacBook Pro and it seemed to be better, but I could only test for like 30 minutes.
Ideally, Samsung magician would recognize the SSD

That may not be possible with MacOS. Because I think I read Apple doesn’t allow low-level access to the drive for security reasons.

Samsung Magician detects both my 970 EVO Plus and 990 Pro in macOS.

I can't do anything with the application (besides seeing stats) because of the reasons you mentioned though.

I should clarify that Magician sees the ssd and notes that it’s a Samsung 990 Pro. It won’t let me upgrade the firmware or change anything on the drive though.

I’m thinking of buying the bullet and just purchasing the new Acadia TB5 enclosure…
