UPDATE:

I've added an alternate lower case without the nubs to accomodate slightly different adapter PCB's like the one linked in @markj 's comment. 

Also check you install the adapter the right way up… the adapter should have all the components on the lower side (the one with 4 posts) and the SSD should be in the upper half (with the tabs for the snap-fit parts and the smol hole for the LED)

2nd UPDATE:

now with cap!

I have printed the cap successfully open side up and on my printer the resulting cap has just enough grab for a nice not-too-tight friction fit. There is a set of nubs on the inner rails that should slot into the recesses in the USB plug. there is no discernable click but it holds well enough. 

Let me know if you have any issues

Variants:

User Jürgen_B has made a remix for the Berrybase.de sled that has a capacitor right where one of the frame supports sit on the top.

find it in the remix tab or here: clicky

/UPDATE

 

Here is a case to protect your NVME SSD while it's on that cheap caseless USB adapter you got from ebay/aliexpress. (The exact one is pictured, note the arrows pointing out quarter-circle cutouts and the position of the activity LED. others may also fit, but this one has pretty tight tolerances to I wouldn't hold your breath)

The design tolerances don't allow much wiggle room, you'll need a well calibrated printer and a reasonably fine nozzle. 

There's a bump along the inside back edge to put pressure on the back of the adapter. Depending on your printer, you may need to smooth/file/sand it down. (Also some if these have a little extra remnant of PCB along the front and back edge where they were snapped apart and not cleanly milled. This might need trimming or smoothing.

SSD's can get quite warm so one version of the top cover has slots and the other is completely open to allow heatsinks to be added/used.

On the heat topic, PLA is probably not recommended so anything with a reasonable heat resistance. PETG is good, but can be a bit flexible. ABS or ASA would be the best choices but YMMV.

There is a notch for the LED that with some persuasion can take a small piece of clear or white filament to act as a light pipe/diffuser
