PNY XLR8 CS3040 1TB SSD Review

We used CrystalDiskMark 8’s custom settings to test the 4K 70/30 mixed read/write performance of the drive through a range of queue depths.

The drive handles our 4KB 70/30 mixed read/write tests very well up to QD16 (393,317 IOPS) where the performance begins to level out, finishing the test run at QD32 at 394,988 IOPS (1,617.87MB/s).

Using a single thread test, the drive peaks at 145,803 IOPS at QD32, but as with the four threaded test, the performance of the drive begins to level out at QD16.
