MacBook Air 2015 SSD (alien.top)

I have an SSD from a MacBook Air 2015 that I know still works, I just managed to corrupt it using OCL patcher. I’m after an adapter that allows me to connect this proprietary keyed SSD to my PC to wipe it but I can only find the adapters that allow me to use a standard nvme in this laptop. Anyone have any suggestions?

You can get USB enclosures from Amazon. But if you want to simply wipe the disk, you could create a linux USB using your windows PC and then boot your mac with that. Ubuntu works well on the 2015 macbook airs. The live USB will allow you to repartition the SSD.

So I have tried to boot into another OS already and it keeps throwing me into the Open Core bootloader no matter what drive I choose in recovery mode.

Here's an adapter card for $20.

This is one of the many reasons I regret going for an itx build
