In that specification, Intel may be being less than honest about the true idle power consumption figures. A claimed 25mW power consumption actually turns out to be 225mW with testing equipment and that is high compared with other NVMe drives. The idle power consumption is an important stat but peak power draw is unknown - no information is provided about the state 0, 1 or 2 power consumption unless someone has one to hand?
