We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the Sequential read and write performance of the drive through a range of queue depths. The setup for the tests is listed below.

128KB Sequential Read / Write.

Transfer Request Size: 128KB, Thread(s): 1, Outstanding I/O: 1-32.

Using these tests, the reads and writes came in a little shy of the official maximums of 14,900MB/s and 14,500MB/s, respectively, with results of  14,749MB/s for reads and 14,053MB/s for writes.

128KB Sequential Read v QD performance.

At QD1, the Corsair MP700 Pro XT sits in second place behind the Samsung SSD9100 Pro by a very tiny margin. At QDs 2 and 4, the drive sits on top of both results tables by quite a margin. At QD32, the drive drops into second place.

128KB Sequential Write v QD performance.

At QD1, the drive sits in the bottom half of the results table; however, at QD2, the drive has moved up into third place, a position it holds at the remaining tested queue depths.
