8KB Random Read Performance

As the DC3000ME has been designed for use in data centre's, we also tested the drive using 8K data. In our 4-threaded read test, the drive climbed steadily through the tested queue depths until QD16 (429,431 IOPS), where the rate of acceleration slowed down, and the performance started to level off, with a small peak (431,179 IOPS), at QD64,  finishing the test run at QD128 with a figure of 431,166 IOPS.

8KB Random Write Performance

When it came to 8K random writes, the performance acceleration peaked at QD4 (390,154 IOPS) and, as with the random reads, the performance levelled off until QD64, where the performance peaked again at 396,947 IOPS before dropping back to finish the test run at 391,159 IOPS at QD128.
