IOMeter is another open source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid state drive technology.

We test with both random read and write 4k tests, as shown above. There are many ways to measure the IOPS performance of a Solid State Drive, so our results will sometimes differ from manufacturer’s quoted ratings. We do test all drives in exactly the same way, so the results are directly comparable.

The official 4k random read/write figures for the drive are up to 55,000 and 30,000 IOPS respectively. These figures are from testing done at a queue depth of 32. We tested the drive at QD1 and got a read figure of 70,903 IOPS, with 83,280 IOPS for writes.
