No, it isn't. It isn't a "drive" at all - it's a card in the MiniPCIe form factor, but with custom connection of the pins.

I had my Mini 9 SSD broken 3x after I put them into my luggage during my holiday trip.. Suspected the xray scan at the airport did something to it.. anyone had similar cases?

I've run SSDs through airport scanners many times, including my Mini 9. Never an issue. Did you put the whole Mini in your luggage? That's a good way to get it stolen, sad to say.

When you say "broken 3x", what exactly do you mean?
