Lenovo, under their legion brand, had an egpu enclosure which literally cannot be found.
I really wanted one. Could not for the life of me find one. Still can’t. Had to go with some shit tier razer egpu which I can’t even use the usb/nic cards out of and instead use a usb hub separate.
They still have a site and such but no stock. Literally have never had stock that I could find. They just throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks.

We use thinkpads for work. They were hit HARD by supply chains.
I won’t ever believe a Lenovo announcement until I see stock. And even then expect some big bugs. Their new thinkpad Z13/z16 has such an atrocious wake from sleep bug they literally have a pinhole on the bottom cover to manually reset the power (disconnects the battery/power from the mainboard). Like I swear during engineering they were like “put a pinhole reset in the bottom and let’s ship this thing”. To Ben fair is a nice laptop short of that and the power warning on boot you can silence if you dare use less than a 140w usbc power brick
