SSD Adapter for 2015 MacBook Air

[LevelUp Comm]

I am working on a 2015 MacBook Air for a client. The user spilled liquid on the keyboard, and now it won't boot. They took it to a Genius, whose repair quote was high enough that they decided to buy a new MacBook Pro instead. I restored their data from a backup and they're in good shape now, but now I want to wipe the MBA's SSD to prevent any of their personal data from ending up in the wrong hands. Two days later and I still can't find an adapter that will allow me to access the drive on another Mac (I don't have another 2015 MBA to use). Do any of you know where I can find an adapter for this, so I can connect to it and wipe it? Here are the specs:

MacBook Air Core i5 - Early 2015
Model #: A1466 (EMC 2925)
256GB SSD (Samsung model #: MZ-JPV256R/0A2)
The SSD has a 16 + 12 pin configuration on one side, and an 11 + 14 pin configuration on the other.
Link for reference: http://www.memory4less.com/samsung-ssd-mz-jpv256r-0a2

I know servicing Macs is very much a moving target since they're always changing their configurations, but this model has been out for a couple of years, and I'm a bit surprised that I can't find any SATA or USB adapters for it. Any ideas how I can reliably wipe the drive without physically damaging it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestions, popatim. Unfortunately, the enclosure on Newegg isn't compatible with the SSD that's in a 2015 MBA. Starting in mid-2013 (I think), Apple stated using SSDs that are similar to standard M.2 chips, but are proprietary and use different pin-outs. For that reason, the PCIe adapter also won't work.

I did, however, find out about an adapter/enclosure that should work, although it's on the pricey side (https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MAU3ENPRPCI).

That appears to be the case. At least there's an option. Thanks for the feedback, Tesetilaro.

i asked Transcend if they plan to release apple PCIe replacement kits - as they do have for sata stuff - they do not like current AHCI PCIe controllers that are in the market - and no one would develop a new one for this small market niche now - as anyone targeting for nvme PCIe currently...

i would suggest to borrow a owc kit for an hour... or just shredd the SSD :-/

Thanks for checking, Tesetilaro. I ended up buying the OWC adapter/enclosure (https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MAU3ENPRPCI), and it works really well. It also comes in an enclosure that looks and feels like it belongs with a MacBook. That it works well and looks good doesn't completely justify the cost, but it helps a lot.
