I'm building an intel based mini-pc proxmox/ceph cluster. I've got limited m.2 slots. I'm looking to put an nvme drive in a usb type-a enclosure to boot proxmox, then use the internal nvme slots for replicated ceph storage and vm pools.
I went through the nvme enclosure thread, i'm looking one of these enclosures with the RTL9210B chipset, this one from what i can tell seems to be a fairly popular/safe option.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RVC6F9Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Does not appear to come with a type-c to type-a cable)
As far as nvme storage, i don't need much space, frankly even 128gb would be plenty for a base proxmox install, plus logs, right now i'm thinking WD SN750 250gb
Do these seems like good choices? do you think there may be better choices?
