I did a similar replacement and it was a great idea! But you had to pick the right adapter, also the 2015 MBP had the least compatibility issues.

Wasn't 2015 still in the days of SATA? I put an SSD in mine and it was trivial. It's not at all what the 2016+ models are like.

- 2010 to ~2013: removable SATA SSD in a stick form-factor.

- ~2013 to 2015: removable PCIe SSD (connector not compatible with off the shelf ones though)

- 2016+: soldered
