Is there a reason to believe that it could ruin your motherboard and/or SSD? This is to say, is the SSD possibly faulty to begin with? As long as you have a fully functioning (USB/PCIe lanes active) slot, it should work.

No need to roll eyes, I was asking a serious question. There should be no reason why it wouldn't work, unless you suspect damage or something similar to begin with. I am assuming this was removed from an EEEPC, and often times parts are removed when a machine gets parted (due to damage). If you had a power surge or something, it would make sense for you to ask.
