Hi.
I hope I'm not too verbose.
I want install a new ssd nvem on my macbook pro early 2015 13" i5 2,7ghz
I have read the main thread
Determined that I shouldn't have suspension problems, because i have big sur and the mac is 2015
I have some doubt.

1) i have see the list with the different Average power Consumption. But i can't report it on the real "life". If i buy the first ssd ( MyDigitalSSD SBX) I would have a better battery life? And if I buy a Samsung 970 how bad the battery will be in one day, about 10%? 15%?
I don't need a precise measurement, but I can't understand the implications in real life of battery

2) I have seen that there are problems with installing windows 10. Is it occasional or does it always happen? I often have 3 boot: Arch / Win / MacOs. The problems are only in Win (and why do they occur since the nvme controller is supported by the efi?) Or also with other OS (Linux)?
