I was hoping to find this information in the Pinebook Pro WIKI, But it does not elaborate on the drive specs.

The SoC supplies PCIe generation 2. And since generation 3 is backward comaptible with 2, any generation 2 or 3 NVME drive would work, (from this perspective). For that mater, a PCIe generation 4 drive should work, (but they are few, and probably more expensive at present).
Give the Pinebook Pro Wiki time to build up information. This is a new product. In someways, the average person should wait months until all the quirks have been either worked out, worked around or at least identified. (Not saying you are an average person who should wait...)
I too am looking for wattage information. In someways the NVME should be much faster than the eMMC, so using a NVME that is slower but meets the power budget better should okay for most people.
