MacBook keeps randomly ejecting external drives

MacOS Ventura on MacBook Pro M1. Randomly ejects external drives of all types (LaCie rugged, or SanDisk SSD, or even flash drives). Tried all different cables and ports - clearly a software problem as I see this happening to lots of people. Happens mostly when Mac is sleeping, but will do it while awake too. I see they recently got rid of the option to "never put hard disks to sleep". Does it on battery or plugged in.
