If you want to match the data sheet, you should replicate the data sheet's test conditions: 4 jobs with a queue depth of 32. http://www.anandtech.com/show/8104/intel-ssd-dc-p3700-review-the-pcie-ssd-transition-begins-with-nvme/3 shows the P3700 is better at QD 128 for random reads: * 1125 MB/s at QD 32 * 1875 MB/s at QD 128 so you might be seeing a similar effect. Also, since the data sheet mentions iometer, they must have used Windows. Windows and linux drivers don't always deliver equal performance. ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�������^n�r������&��z�ޗ�zf���h���~����������_��+v���)ߣ�
