Will having an additional NVME drive and another 2.5 Inch SATA SSD in the laptop at the same time impact battery life. I just got a 500GB Samsung NVME SSD for the second NVME slot. I now have a free SATA hard drive bay. Will adding another SATA SSD in the HDD drive bay impact battery life?

    One of the things that would impact battery life would be too many connected usb devices at the same time draining power :) apart from that dont see anything else
