For laptop users.... Need to test the power needs of SDD first and check if your notebook accept that all brands what i Have look the specs says maximum 1 or 2 tera. If the user put one of these and fry the notebook will be user error.

Hard disagree, this will work in any 2280 m.2 PCIE compatible slot (Gen 3 or newer) on any laptop.

This looks to top out at 5.8W... SSD/NVME spec for laptop has nothing to do with compatibility or warranty (especially in USA). Usually capcity spec only shows which capacity the OEM bundles it with. There is no Whitelist/blacklist for ssd like there can be for WAN/Wifi cards.

Samsung claims this drive is 50% more efficient than the 980 pro, so a much better choice for performance laptop gen 4 ssd, especially when you only have a single m.2 larger capacity is a necessity.
