      It's weird that upgrading to Big Sur didn't fix the issue. Yes, any OS before Big Sur had problems regarding NVMe drives since they were not totally compatible. But Big Sur introduced a new BootROM version that supports all NVMe drives natively. I have a MacBook Pro Mid-2014 with a 1TB Kingston M.2 NVMe that had a similar issue on Mojave/Catalina, if I left the laptop with the lid closed sometimes I would be shown the login screen for FileVault, but then I upgraded to Big Sur to fix the issue and as I expected, it did. Also, upgrading the BootROM is permanent, so even if some day I choose to downgrade back to Catalina, there won't be any issues. If you update the BootROM, you won't need the pmset -a standby 0 fix.
      EDIT: If you go to About This Mac -> System Report... and your System Firmware Version is 429.0.0.0.0 then it shouldn't be a problem switching back to the 1TB drive.

A minor difference in how an SSD's firmware handles sleep/wake behaviors can result in all kinds of issues like preventing system sleep (resulting in faster battery drain), slow wake-up times, or even complete inability to wake up.

      @@theunimerse8567 Your sleep/wake symptom might appear exactly the same, but it's probably caused by something totally different if you're still using stock hardware. Your situation is unlikely to be related to the stock SSD.
      If the problem has been present since day 1, it's likely a hardware issue. If it developed over time, it could be either software or hardware. Try a total drive wipe and fresh install of the OS. If the problem still exists, it's a hardware problem (watch Louis Rossman's videos and you'll see that some MacBooks do end up with sleep/wake issues for various hardware reasons -- so do some PC laptops). If it works fine after a fresh OS install then it was probably a software error that crept in over time. Install your programs back one at a time, checking for the sleep/wake issue before and after each one.
      As for Apple fixing things, they don't really fix things. Anything other than a simple and obvious problem and their "geniuses" try to get you to replace the system instead. No data swap services offered, either.

      Reminds me of the time I was trying to put a processor back into a discarded school laptop only for the keyboard to be broken off. Though to be fair that laptop was an absolute pain in the ass to dissassemble, needing to have screws taken off the top and bottom, rather than, say, a normal laptop that only needs the bottom to be taken off.
      Oh yeah, and that attempt was in vain, because when I finally accessed the processor socket, there was a processor already in there. A teacher obviously noticed the sticky note I'd left on it saying that that I took the CPU out. I was looking for a replacement to the shitty ass CPU in my eMachines but the one from the school laptop didn't fit.
      On a positive note, there were two other discarded school laptops of the exact same model. I only needed to find chargers for them and they would actually work. As for my eMachines, I found a 4GB RAM stick in one of the dead Dell laptops that actually fit and used it to replace one of my 2GB RAM sticks (taking my RAM from 4GB to 6GB, further reducing the not responding error). I do, however, regret not taking two.

    Check your systemfirmware, if its on 429.0.0.0.0 you should have the newest efi and the updated big sur driver. On this Version you can use the third party ssd without a problem. The problem is that mac can only update their systemfirmware with the original ssd. And the new version coming with big sur fixed all sleep wake issues.

    Hey Ken! Just put a new 1TB WD black drive with the proper adapter in my late 2013 15". Upgraded to big sur before my time machine backup. The big sur upgrade actually has a new EFI version for the computer and adds the fixes neccesary for normal operation with these better NVME drives. The OWC solution still has issues since it is running a non-standard controller.

    Considering that the Macbook came out before NVMe was a thing, there's many different issues that it could face when trying to do the functions like the standby mode, etc.
    MacOS has supported NVMe for a few years at this point, but the firmware/EFI shell in your Macbook most likely wants an AHCI drive in order to do what it wants.
    Even though all PCIe storage devices are meant to be backwards compatible with older systems, this doesn't necessarily mean that it will support all the bells and whistles that the stock Samsung drive had - this can be due to differing chips, different flash controllers or even different power requirements not met or properly supported through drivers by the 2013 model.

    Ken, the reason you saw the problem only when the Macbook's power adapter wasn't connected to the Macbook (when running on battery power alone) is that Macbooks are supposed to go into standby/hibernate mode only when their power adapter isn't connected, since standby/hibernate mode isn't really needed as long as the power adapter is connected--it's intended to save battery power.

    Hey ! I just wanna let you know about the issue you got with the Time Machine backup and the Mojave recovery partition.
    macOS Big Sur's Time Machine backups are in APFS, and not in OS X Journaled. That also means you can't use this drive on older versions as 11.1, even when you try to show the files in the Finder (the drive shows up, but the fils are not here.).
    But, if you restore a macOS Catalina Time Machine backup in Big Sur, it will automatically convert to APFS.
    So, tip for next time, use a different external SSD to Time Machine Catalina and Big Sur :)

    when I upgraded my SSD, I just bought a normal 1TB WD Blue NVME SSD, then found an adapter for $5 or something like that on Amazon that let me put it inside my MacBook Air. However I was having some issue where 60% of the time I'd open the lid, I'd see the flashing question mark folder. But I've since upgraded to a 2014 15" retina MacBook pro, and moved that SSD into the new laptop without formatting or resetting anything. Haven't seen the issue on the new MacBook so I'm pretty sure the Air just has some sort of damage, which would make sense since it was kicked around in a backpack for 4 years in high school and has been dropped more times than I care to admit.

Also the battery was draining fast and it ran slow. I suspected the SSD since it was spontaneously corrupting. None of the terminal commands made any difference ( standby mode etc).

    Ken! Glad you fixed it but my old MacBook Air did the same thing. I had it stock no upgrades no nothing. It was a 2018 so everything was sottered on. I never knew what the problem was.

    Can confirm this is due to an issue caused by an error with boot camp assistant that transferred over with your backup. Not entirely sure exactly the error but it’s 100% due to the bootcamp assistant being used

    4 days ago I installed a 500 GB WD Black SN750 disk drive to my -old- new Macbook Pro 15" mid 2015 and it works great.
    The SSD is way faster than the OEM 512 SSD that came originally with this device and all SSD-related utilities works as intended. The adapter that I used is one called Sintech or something like that.
    That's my recommendation: +2900 read and ~2500 write speeds respectively.

    I've had this problem for quite a while on a MBP 13, 2017. Crash every time I started or opened the top. Many times a day I had to go through multiple reinstalls of Big Sur before it would restart with a Pram zap. I actually wouldn't go through the reinstall but shutdown when it got to the "select drive" screen because the reinstall didn't help. Seems to be a Big Sur problem. It didn't start crashing immediately when I went to Big Sur, but a couple of upgrades later. But yesterday I tied a simple hack that seems to have fixed the problem. I have a thumb drive attached all the time and I guess it never goes into deep sleep and doesn't initiate the crash.

    Hey just some insight I ordered that seem ST from the same manufacture a 1 TB drive with 16 gigabytes of RAM and I had some start up issues as well and it rebooting just like as you said you’d sporadically put up in the middle of the night when I was sleeping in the same issues so I’m glad to know that I’m not alone

    20 minutes for an OS install when you have an SSD??
