I use them as swapfile or scratch drives. That or I put them in USB caddies for fast portable storage.
I sorta have some space in my case to mount SSDs, using special brackets. The issue is that I would need more SATA ports.Pool them, assuming you having the ability to mount several in your case. I have several pooled that I use as my download drive.
You get one of those 4 NVME drive PCI-E cards and then do a JBOD array, then you store all your important data on said JBOD array. And since it's 4 drives, you don't need to worry about backing any of that data up.For all the usual reasons, I have these old SSD drives. I have several 128 GB NVMe drives that came with new laptops, but got replaced with 1 or 2 TB drives. So do i just chuck these?

I’m sorry, I forgot that sarcasm doesn’t come over well on the internetIt's been a while but if you lose a drive in a JBOD array where's the redundancy? Don't you lose everything on that drive?
If I was wanting a NAS style I'd buy up those 16/32GB Optane drives that are now dirt cheap. Pretty good endurance and low latency.
Yeah I put one of those in my work laptop a few months ago. Worked fine, I swapped it out later for a Hynix as I needed it for something else.The 118 GB is also cheap these days: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09MSB59SK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
