From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you're using a SATA SSD then you don't even need an enclosure, just a cable like this StarTech USB 3.1 one: https://a.co/d/0fBSMs7
The SSD is already in an enclosure (the case of the SSD), so placing it inside another enclosure is redundant...
NVMe SSDs aren't worth getting for the Pi 4 because it doesn't have a PCIe bus, so you'll only be getting USB speeds anyways. A SATA SSD is fine for that. Still aorund 4x faster than using an SD card.
