Mac rebooting in sleep after hard drive upgrade

[Ethax]

Hello everyone,
I recently updated my SSD in my 2013 MBP from its original 512GB to a new 1TB one. First I updated from Sierra to Catalina, then I backed it up on time machine, Then I installed the new SSD (Samsung 970 evo), and restored the backup to the new SSD. Now if I put my computer to sleep, (only on battery power from what i've seen so far), after a few hours if I try to power it up it will either have turned itself off and bong twice and take forever to boot backup OR it will appear that it normally slept until I login and get a notification that it was "rebooted because of a problem".

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix?

I have read the thread on updating the SSD and I see now that there's hibernation problems on the 2013 MBP, seams like I have a few options there, and to me having apple fix the problem seems the easiest (if they would actually fix it) I wonder how hard it is to get them to do it??

The hibernation issue with NVMe drives is common in non-2015 Airs and Pros.

The only thing you can do is either disable hibernation, shut down if you will not be using it for an extended period of time, or flash a modded bootrom.

Apple will not fix the problem because using a NVMe is not something they support.

I dont want to disable hibernation, Its important to me that its able to do that. Ive taken a look at the bootrom update and it looks like more than I want to tackle. I'm considering putting in the old 512 ssd or buying an old 1tb ssd from old mac on ebay.

I read that my battery life is also suffering from the new NVMe ssd. Is it known by how much? and as far as speed goes, is the upgraded NVMe speeds something im really going to notice in everyday usage? (chrome, imessage, light photoshop, CAD software, exc..) .. I realize file transfer is going to be slower but I rarely transfer large files places anyways.

-thanks

If you want proper hibernation without a modded bootrom, you have to use an original Apple SSD.

The 970 Evo's read/write speed will be limited by the MacBooks PCIe 2.0 two-lane bus.

You will not notice much of a speed gain, if any, in everyday use. You will notice a speed gain when reading and writing large files.

As for battery life, you may experience a reduction of 10% to 30%.

If you go for a 1 TB drive, look for an SSUBX (4-lane drive) rather than a SSUAX (2-lane drive) if the price different isn't too great.
