Does anybody know of a solid state external drive that I can use with a MacBook Pro that connects with Thunderbolt (and not just USB 3.0).  I've been looking on Lazada and AliExpress and so far have not found one.

You can buy an NVME Thunderbolt 3 enclosure on Shoppee or Lazada, and then you can buy an Nvme M.2 SSD card, you can choose 500Gb, 1Tb, 2Tb, or 4Tb

Good to know, but I just found out what my real issue was.  I just discovered that my Adobe Lightroom has been making backups of my image library without deleting the previous ones. Since it was so incremental, I never noticed, even though it was always suspicious to me how my free space just kept shrinking over time at such a shocking rate.

 

Now that I've deleted all but the most recent backup, I'm back to having plenty of free space.  It feel so luxurious to see I have almost half of my SSD as free space again.
