Hello, I've done some benchmarks with FIO of entire SSD devices. So the FIO benchmark stops when the whole device has been read/written. I've logged latency and iops for the entire run. Those logs are then translated to graphs. The Intel SSD shows the kind of graph I would expect. The Samsung and Kingston SSDs show 'strange' results. I've written a brief blog article about this which includes links to the raw data and the images. https://louwrentius.com/difference-of-behavior-in-sata-solid-state-drives.html Does anybody have an idea what could be going on? Why do we see these 'golden gate bridge' patterns? Maybe I did something wrong? With regards, Louwrentius
