Comment on Thoughts on these SATA/M.2-->SATA/2.5" adapters?

JBOD relies on an optional SATA extension, which most of your controllers won’t have.
That leaves you with RAID in the controller - which is a bad idea, as you don’t have much control over what is going on, and recovery if it fails will possibly messy.

Then why does it list JBOD?

Because it does JBOD if the controller supports it. Pretty much none of the controllers you’ll find in consumer hardware support that.
