As I had the experience of a Crucial SSD on a RPI 4 (for booting de OS) and was very impress with the result, I got a Crucial P2 NVME PCIe 2280 M.2 SSD of 500 gb.
What it took 45 minutes to install in RPI 4 turned out to be a week (of confinement) to get working on PBP. The result is very good and can be compared with RPI 4.
I have tryed to add this hardware to the nvme listing with no result, so I will post here, excuse my ignorance.
$ sudo nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0
NVME Identify Controller:

rwt:4 rwl:4 idle_power:- active_power:-
The on demand consumption is enabled by default and my attempt to use other setting ended up with less battery life.
I have managed to boot from MMC and have root pointed to the NVMe by label. The so is Ubuntu mate as I tried Manjaro but found it complicated to tune to my test, I am an ubuntu user for many years at home and work.
Thanks and regards,
Carlos.
Also, if some action triggers high power demand with battery below 30% PBP may hang up.
I will test further with PS2 to see if this behavior improves.
