Ah, additional components. In addition to the SSD perhaps the HDMI connection is drawing current too but I have no knowledge of the electronic circuitry involved in an HDMI connection.
Certainly adequate power is needed but in my case I have a 3A supply feeding both the RPi and the Official Display through their individual power inputs using a USB power-splitter cable. I see no problems that I can associate with poor power. For example, the display shows the traditional 4 strawberry icons, one for each CPI, and no lightning bolt icon warning of an undervoltage condition. There are no power-associated warnings in the dmesg output.
I don't think we've ruled out the possibility that there is an unresolved configuration issue here.
...und Schöne Feiertage!
