8K Sustained Random Read Performance.

We also pushed the drive a bit harder by testing at 8K (8 threads, 16GB span) to see how it would perform. The read performance peaks at 59,028 IOPS (483.56MB/s). Once again after the initial burst, it remained very consistent across the tested queue depth, the only downside is the very high latency while doing it.

8K Sustained Random Write Performance.

In the 8K random write test, the drive peaked at 54,485 IOPS at a QD of 16. But as with the 8K random read results the latency figures are very high.
