We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the 4K random read 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.

Using our four-threaded 4K random read tests, we couldn't get close to the official maximum of 1,300K IOPS. The best figure we saw was 504,638 IOPS (2,066MB/s) at the end of the test run at QD32.

4K Random Read v QD Performance

At QD1, the drive sits towards the bottom of the table, sitting between the 2TB Corsair MP700 and the 4TB MP700 PRO SE. As the queue depth deepens, the drive starts to drop down the table, but at QD32 it stages a slight recovery.
