Stressing out the drive across queue depths between 1 and 32 saw the A1000 stumble in the read test at the QD2 mark, dropping to 1,095.77MB/s, but it soon picked up again to peak at 1,598.43MB/s at a QD of 8. After QD1, the write performance was more stable, peaking at 1,130.51MB/s at the QD32 mark.
