Recovering an SSD
I have a 4 year old dell computer that I have been using for a secondary computer. Just recently this week the power source got fried. I have been having trouble with this computer for 2-3 months and I am tired fixing and replacing parts. I would though like to get the internal data off the SDD drive/card (PCIe Gen3x4 - PC601 NVM e SK hynix 265gb). It is not critical as I can rebuild the info, but it would be nice. Is there a case or something (I bought a case that allowed me to recover a harddrive some year back)

Always include PC model and version of Windows in your posts.
There are lots of M.2 NVME SSD adapters and enclosures that connect to a PC via USB...
You sure the PSU in this PC died? Have you tried running the PSU BIST test? Follow instructions for PCs with or without the PSU test button on back of the case, depending on your exact PC model.
Did you try clearing BIOS by removing the motherboard battery and pressing/holding power button for ~30 sec? Then install battery again. Might be time to install a fresh battery...
