Ssd is smaller than external hdd ke if include casing? External hdd like seagate backup or wd passport ayam see is quite small already

if you go with m2 2230 ssd and enclosure, yes it is significantly smaller. downside is the price premium on those form factor.

for the best bang for the buck, go for m2 2280 ssd and enclosure.

See many complain about heat. Is it until throttling or still on same speed? If throttling, how low the speed becomes?
I think about half the size if using 2280 m.2 ssd. Maybe 1/4 size if using 2230 enclosure.

I have been using external hdd and thumb drives since college. Nowadays external hdd not much change, and big capacity thumb drive pricier compared to nvme. Also just want to try new form factor.

you are going to be limited by usb bus speed or the qlc nand chip rather by the ssd controller itself.
