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 4-threaded test results, we couldn't get close to the official maximum random read figure of 2,300,000 IOPS; the best we saw was 556,572 IOPS at QD32.

4K Random Read v QD Performance

The drive is consistent in its performance as the queue depth deepens, sitting in fifth or sixth place throughout the testing.
