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 1TB PNY CS3030 averaged 105,314 IOPS for the test with a performance stability of 77.87% which is very good for this class of drive.
