@george1421 Trying to read up on this topic I figured that this is not new. Samsung itself has been involved since March 2017!! But seems like this is still the case even with newer kernel versions and other Samsung drives: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1624611
As far as I understand it the lower you set the value of default_ps_max_latency_us the more power is consumed. Not sure if we want to set this by default for everyone.
@jlthompsonpsd Can you please post the exact machine model you have as well as run smartctl -i /dev/nvme0 in a debug capture task console and post a picture of the output here?
