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.

In this test, the test results confirmed the official sequential ratings of the drive of up to 10,000MB/s and 8,500MB/s for read and write respectively with the drive producing figures of 10,738MBs for reads and 8,759MB/s for writes both at QD32.

128KB sequential Read performance compared

At QDs 1 and 2 the drive sits just above the E31T reference design but at QD4 it drops below it.  However, at QD32 the drive climbs up the table to lead the way for the 10GB/s drives.

128KB sequential Write performance compared.

When it comes to the sequential write test results the MP700 Elite with Heatsink sits just above the PS5031-E31T reference design through all the tested queue depths.
