Latest DaVinci Resolve Studio Update 19.1.1 Has FIXED The H.265 Encode Issue On Apple Silicon Macs 👍
The previous version of DaVinci Resolve Studio, 19.1, would generate corrupted exports when using H.265 with the Main10 profile with a multi-pass encode and having optimise for speed turned off. I suspect that this was more of a macOS issue as the problem only happened after the macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 update.
Anyway, after updating to DaVinci Resolve Studio 19.1.1, this problem has now gone.

Checkout DaVinci Resolve on the Blackmagic Design website, there's a fully functioning free version that you can download and tryout. Just scroll down a bit on this page and click on the download link for the the free version:

My recommendation for a fast Thunderbolt 4 USB4 external SSD for your Apple Silicon M1 M2 M3 or M4 Mac is the Acasis TBU405Pro M1 enclosure, paired up with the WD SN850X SSD. I use the 4TB version and it's awesome. This combination does not thermal throttle as the Acasis enclosure is fan cooled and keeps the WD SN850X below its thermal throttling point.
If buying direct from the Acasis website use my promo code "David15" for a 15% discount off anything you buy on the Acasis website.

While I obviously have thermal issues with the Zike Z666, it will work with many SSDs without overheating and going into thermal throttling. However, as of yet I do not have any recommendations for an SSD with the Zike. If you decide to buy the Zike Z666 you can get 20% off on the Zike website using my promo code "David20".

I have not thoroughly tested the 990 Pro with all of my enclosures. However, this is an excellent SSD if used internally with a computer with proper SSD cooling and good airflow. While I can't recommend the 990 Pro just yet for any use with any enclosure, here's some links for anyone who is going to use it in a properly cooled computer.
