HiI bought a WD Blue SN570 2TB internal SSD and I want to install it into a M.2 NVMe enclosure harddrive cabinet to boot my raspberry pi 4. I cant find a list of compatible enclosure devices since it wont show up in windows 10 when i want to format it and flash a retropie image.

OK, So there are numerous potential issues with running via a USB cable adaptor and also some dependence on what SSD Drive you have.
Basic rule of thumb, a KNOWN GOOD brand of drive (Every Sandisk we have thrown at it works) , and a decent 3.1 USB SATA Adaptor/adapter cable (plugged in to the bottom Blue USB next to the Network plug) , here are a couple of links to known working ones
