Corsair MP600 GS 2TB SSD Review

We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the 4K random write performance of the drive through a range of queue depths. The setup for the tests is listed below.

Transfer Request Size: 4KB, Outstanding I/O: 1-32.

When it comes to random writes, once the drive hits QD2 the performance stays very consistent for the following test runs from 253,155 IOPS at QD2 to 255,006 IOPS at QD32. As with the random read results, that peak figure of 255,006 IOPS is way short of the official 1000K IOPS. Again we tested with eight threads and got a figure of 410,809 IOPS, much improved but still a mile away from the official maximum

4K Random Write performance v QD compared.

Just as with the random read performance, the MP600 GS performs the best at QDs 1 & 2 in our random write test before dropping away as the queue depth deepens.
