As for an alternative, I didn't think there was any but looking around there actually are some others with an M.2 slot:

Not tried any myself, but it's worth noting pretty much all the docks will use similar internals as all these companies use the same stuff but tweak a case around it.
JSAUX provided solid support and after multiple replacements provided a full refund for the dock as it did not work as intended for my SteamDeck. I really liked the look and style of the JSAUX dock but unfortunately I was not able to get a functional device. I have since tested a number of different docks and have found that the Sabrent 7-in-1 Dock with M.2 SSD Slot to be stable so far. I have managed to install and update games with the SteamDeck docked and have not yet had the drive unmount itself, overheat, or any other issues that I previously had. I will test this more and if I run into any issues I will post them, but so far this dock has met all my expectations and will be the go to for my kids when they get their own SteamDecks.
