We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the 4K random write 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.

As with the random read results with our four threaded random write tests, we couldn't get close to the official maximum of 1,400K IOPS. The best we saw from testing was 438,553 IOPS (1,796MB/s) at QD16.

4K Random Write v QD Performance

At QDs 1 and 2, the drive sits in the penultimate place in the result tables. As the queue depth deepened, the drive moved up four places on the charts at QD4 and 32, in the process passing the 2TB version of  Corsair's MP700 Elite with Heatsink drive.
