I think you'll find the issue is your Blade SSD alternative you are using. I've replaced a few M.2 SSD's with the adapter going to an Apple pin compatible replacement SSD from OWC or other source. The issue is timing the system don't have a sizable window and as you are adding an adapter they tend to increase the time delay.
