With our own Sequential tests, we couldn’t quite hit the official maximums for either read or writes. Our read result of 7,106.29MB/s isn’t too far short of the official 7,200MB/s while the write score of 6,786.43MB/s is a bit further off the official 6,900MB/s.
128KB Sequential Read Performance v QD compared.
At queue depths 1 & 2 the 4TB drive is the fastest of the Rocket 4 Plus models we have tested. However, at QD4 the performance falls away but at a QD of 32 only Samsung's SSD 980 PRO is faster.
128KB Sequential Write Performance v QD compared.
When it came to the Sequential write tests, the 2TB version of the drive was faster at QD1 but after that its the 4TB Rocket 4 Plus drive that rules the roost.
