4KB Random Read Performance

Kingston rates the 4K random read performance of the 15.36TB version of the DC3000ME as up to 2.7M IOPS. Using our 4-threaded testing, we couldn't get close to that figure; the best we saw was 439,018 IOPS (1,799.06MB/s) at QD128. Also worthy of note is the low-latency performance.

4KB Random Write Performance

Officially, the 15.336TB DC3000ME is rated as up to 400,000 IOPS for 4K random writes. With our four threaded tests, the best figure we saw was just shy of the official maximum at 398,046 IOPS at QD4, before the performance very slowly dropped away to finish the test run at QD128 with a result of 395,206 IOPS. Once again, the low latencies are worthy of note.
