For generic laptops, check the manufacturer's documentation/help resources. A compatible Mac will need an adapter to use an NVMe drive. Check over at Other World Computing.

if you compare dram-less nvme, their power consumption are about the same.
case in point, 980 is maxed out at 4.3W (and about twice as fast both on read and write)
SN550 is maxed out at 3.9W (and about 50% faster on read)
so if you REALLY value about battery life, you should care about performance per unit watt. 980 consumes 30% more power but performs 100% better, so for a given task, it is actually uses 40% less power, all for 10 dollar more.
honestly, given the 980's price tag and performance, i don't know why anyone would go for anything else for general home use(esp at MSRP)

any reason not to jump on this deal
what stands out is the
Warranty: Limited 5-year or 800TBW more then double most
and it VERY LOW POWER 3.3v - 1a
many others are 3.3v - 2.8a those will get very hot and suck batteries dry

i looked at the Specs
980 FOR THE 500gb
Power Draw:
4.3 W (Active) 5.9 W (Max) 5.0 mW (Standby) [B]~1.8amps
Endurance TBW: 300 TB
the Gigabyte 512gb
Power Draw:
Avg. Read : 3.3W ; Write : 2.8W (Idle) 1.8mw ~1amp
Warranty: Limited 5-year or 800TBW
so the Gigabyte is $14 less
the Gigabyte is slower but still faster then any Sata SSD
uses ~1/2 the power and is Guaranteed to last more the 2 times longer

BUT this is a gem for in a laptop with 1/2 the drain and very cool
in a desktop it would not typically matter EXCEPT LASTING 2x longer
