Raspberry Pi 5, NVMe and USB woes

If you have not bought an enclosure/SSD yet, PLEASE make triple sure that what you're buying is compatible between each other and it's not the same cursed enclosure chip I bought. Ideally buy an M.2 hat instead to save yourself some of the issues. You still have to verify compatibility with the SSD if you'll choose a HAT.

After buying a Raspberry Pi 5 8GB, Orico NVMe USB enclosure and ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 2TB for an SSD, I had an awesome time debugging it for hours, here's some things for you to check to save time.

This thread is linked on GitHub and several other places that I found where people struggled to get this working.
