For the long term performance stability test, we set the drive up to run a 20-minute 4K random test with a 30% write, 70% read split, at a Queue Depth of 256 over the entire disk. The 3.84TB DC500M averaged 87,255 IOPS for the test with an excellent performance stability of 96%, a figure you should be expecting from a drive aimed at data centre usage.
