Testing the drive's sequential performance at varying queue depths saw the read performance increase with queue depth until it just surpassed the official maximum figure of 3,400MB/s at 3,462MB/s at a queue depth of 32. Writes, on the other hand, more or less peaked after the initial jump in performance between queue depths 1 & 2, with the peak coming at QD2 and a speed of 2,880MB/s.
