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 read performance of the drive accelerates between QDs 1 and 2 before levelling off between QD2 and 8 before slowly climbing again to finish the test run at 12,190MB/s. The write performance races away to peak at 11,386MB/s at QD2 before dropping back to 9,577MB/s at QD4. The performance then climbs between QD4 and QD16 where it starts to level off, finishing the test run at QD32 with a result of 11,776MB/s.
128KB Sequential Read v QD comparison.
The Heatsink version of the T700 is slightly slower at all tested queue depths than the standard T700. At QDs 1 and 4 it sits behind both the standard T700 and Gigabyte's AORUS Gen5 10000.
128KB Sequential Write v QD comparison.
At QDs 1 and 32, the T700 Heatsink is the fastest consumer drive we've seen to date for Sequential Writes. At QD2 it drops below the standard 2TB T700 while at QD4 it sits behind the standard T700 and Gigabyte's AORUS Gen5 10000.
