That's a little disingenuous. Intel's 700 series SSD does not have anomalously high power. The Optane SSD, based on a completely different technology, has power consumption that is higher but is the top performer in many other metrics.
- wtallis 9y agoThe recent 700 series drive from Intel—the 760p—is pretty good in terms of power consumption. The older 750 was, like the Optane 900P, a large power-hungry card based on their enterprise SSDs and never intended to be used in mobile systems. Intel has on many occasions re-purposed their enterprise SSD tech to make a premium SSD for the consumer market, but that strategy has some downsides.
