Wolf480pl on Nostr: It seems like techpowerup changed their methodology for testing SSD power consumption ...

It seems like techpowerup changed their methodology for testing SSD power consumption around April/May, specifically with regard to the power vs speed graph.

Up to April[1], all the reviews I looked at showed the read power curve mostly flat throughout the speed range. But starting with May[2], it seems to grow linearly similar to the write power curve...

Now, I didn't check all the reviews in those time ranges, so maybe it's sth else
