We used CrystalDiskMark 8 to test the random performance of the drive at lower queue depths (QD1 – QD8 where most of the everyday workloads occur) using 1 to 4 threads.

Random Read

In the random read tests, all four of the tested threads displayed smooth increases in performance as the queue depth deepened. Test results at QD1 ranged from 20,939 IOPS (85.7MB/s) with a single thread up to 86,206 IOPS (353.1MB/s) using four threads.

Random Write

In the 4K write tests the performance rose quickly from QD1 to QD2 (with three and four threads being the fastest) and then a slower rise from QD2 to QD4 before the performance began to level off.
