Can I upgrade MacBook Pro mid-2012 with PCIe gen 4 using a SATA adapter?

My MacBook Pro's performance has gone down and sometimes files are unreadable and sometimes MacBook is unable to boot up, so I am thinking to upgrade my MacBook with a PCIe gen4 SSD and use an adapter such as this [StarTech model](https://www.amazon.co.uk/StarTech-com-2-5in-SATA-Adapter-Converter/dp/B00ITJ7U20/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=M2.ssd+to+2.5+inch+sata+adapter+converter&qid=1630322538&sr=8-3) . This is what I am thinking to go for! ![Screenshot from Amazon.com for a SATA adapter and SSD ][2] to fit it inside SATA slot, is this recommended or will it even fit and work? my MacBook model ![Screenshot of the About This Mac window ][3] System Report ![Screenshot of the System Information showing the SATA details ][1]
