Biwin has sold some of their drives made for HP/Acer as a seller on Amazon. I bought one of the GM7000 drives last year as a Biwin drive for a pretty good price. Great performer, no problems. Looks like they make memory, drives and other pcie cards like network adapters for HP and Acer.

I also got a Chuwi mini pc (ugh, don't get me started) that came with biwin ram and ssd, so they're replacing kingston and those other low end brands as branded components.

You write about this being an excellent choice for laptops in the summary card, and about idle power consumption for ultrabooks in the Power Efficiency, but there isn't any data in this review to prove it. Idle power is only measured with power management disabled, and the only wattage measurements are for 50GB file copies. Neither of those is relevant for regular laptop usage.

Please bring on idle testing with full laptop-grade power management enabled, and wattage consumed with light web surfing loads.
