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.
With our 128KB Sequential tests, we could confirm the official read rating of up to 7,300MB/s with a test result of 7,360MB/s. However, we couldn't confirm the maximum write rating of 6,700MB/s with a test result of 6,466MB/s.
128KB Sequential Read v QD compared.
The Netac NV7000-t performs best in relation to drives around it in QDs 2 and 4 where it sits in third place in the result charts. At QD1 it sits in fifth place while at QD32 it slips to outside the top 10.
128KB Sequential Write v QD compared.
At QD1 the drive is the fastest Gen 4 drive we've seen to date for Sequential writes. However, as the QD increases the drive drops down the results tables.
