128KB Sequential Read/Write.
Test Setup – Transfer Request Size: 128KB, Thread(s): 1, Outstanding I/O: 1-32.
We could confirm the official Sequential read & write performance figures for the 2TB MP600 Pro XT of up to 7,100MB/s and 6,800MB/s respectively with our Sequential tests. The reviewed drive producing a read figure of 7,313MB/s (QD32) with writes at 6,863MB/s (QD16).
128KB Sequential Read v QD compared.
Although the drive's performance at QD 1 isn't going to ruffle any feathers, it is still 133MB/s faster than the previous Corsair MP600 Pro drive. However at deeper queue depths, the drive's performance improves dramatically so by QD32, only Patriot's Viper VP4300 drive is faster.
128KB Sequential Write v QD compared.
In contrast to the Sequential read performance, the Sequential write performance of the drive is impressive from the start. At the tested queue depths of 4 & 32, the Corsair MP600 Pro XT is the fastest consumer Gen 4 drive we've tested to date.
