In case it helps someone: my Framework had rapid battery drain in suspend. Around 10% per hour.

Turns out the Samsung EVO NVMe I installed had really high power draw (I guess it's meant for performance desktops?). I replaced it with a WD Blue and now I lose negligible power while suspended.

Mine shipped with a WD Black, so I'm not hopeful but it's worth considering, if I end up sticking with this hardware.

You could try pulling the drive and then leave it suspended for a day as a test.

Curious if you're running Linux, I recall seeing a discussion about there being a bug with that on Framework that causes it to not suspend properly and burn energy.
