External SSD Enclosure SATA or NVME

[Henryford]

I want to create an external SSD enclosure using a SSD from a broken laptop. The laptop spec says it is a PCLe NVME SSD but the SSD has 2 gaps in the pins (see photo) which i thought indicated it was a SATA SSD. I am not sure what enclosure to buy, one for SATA or NVME, which i think are incompatible. Any advice please?

It's an M.2 interface:

Here's the specs:

Thanks for the fast reply. So it's a NVME SSD. It was just the 2 gaps in the pins that gave me some doubt as videos on the web show NVME SSDs as  having only one gap.

Just make sure that what you buy accepts the M.2 connection and the 22 X 80 size.
