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.

The best result we saw from our 4K random write results was even further away from the official maximum IOPS figure (2,200,000 IOPS) than the random reads at 386,571 IOPS (QD16). The drive finished the test run at 379,332 IOPS (QD32).

4K Random Write v QD Performance

The 8TB version of the Fury Renegade G5 doesn't get out of the bottom half of the results table during any of the test runs.
