We've already looked at one of Netac's NV7000 Gen 4 SSD series, the NV7000-t (over here) but now it is the turn of the latest to join the lineup, the NV7000-Q. It's the Q designation that sets the new drive apart from the others as it signifies that this drive uses QLC NAND rather than TLC NAND.

At the time of writing the NV7000-Q drive lineup only contains a 1TB model. The drive is built around a Maxiotech MAP1602A-F3C 4-channel DRAM-less design controller and YMTC 232-Layer QLC 3D NAND flash.

Netac quotes Sequential performance figures for the NV7000-Q as up to 7,100MB/s and 6,200MB/s just slightly slower than the 1TB NV7000-t (7,300MB/s reads 6.600MB/s writes) and 1TB NV7000 read performance (7.200MB/s) but with a faster write performance than the NV7000 (5,500MB/s). We couldn't find any random 4K figures on the spec sheet but the Maxiotech controller is rated as up to 1,000,000 IOPS for both reads and writes.

Endurance wise the NV7000-Q is rated at 640TBW and Netac back the drive with a 5-year warranty.
