I have a question regarding Intel P3608.

i don't know if we get all the performance from the NVMe Intel P3608.

is there any other way to test the performance?

thx

Hello S.G.,

This is likely due to the difference in block sizes, which directly affects performance and benchmarking.- http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-dc-s3500-raid-performance,3613-8.html Six SSD DC S3500 Drives And Intel's RST: Performance In RAID, Tested - Mixing Block Sizes And Read/Write Ratios.- http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7691/ Size Can http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7691/ Matter:http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7691/ Throughput Performance with a Disk-Based Journal.As for the version, I was referencing to the possible difference between the driver and the RSTe versions. You're checking the driver version correctly, but I'd like to make sure that you have the latest RSTe software version installed. This can be checked in the Intel® RSTe Graphic User Interface (GUI) unless they've made changes to the recent release, it should be under the question sign icon on the taskbar.- http://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/ssdc/ssd-software/Intel_RSTe_NVMe_for_Windo...

sorry,

but i still don't know what to do more

seq. reads and writes are exactly the same or even better than in spec. of NVME

also the random WRITES are close to spec. 140k at host and 91k in VM; this is still strange (diff. between host and VM)

but random READS performance is not event close to spec. of the NVME; host= 220k, VM= 130k

Hello S.G.,

I thought we had asked this before, but upon reviewing your case I found that we had not.

Would it be possible for you to attach the SMART details to your next response?

You can gather this information using the https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26492/Intel-Solid-State-Drive-Toolbox?v=t Intel® SSD Toolbox, or the https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23931/Intel-Solid%20State-Drive-Data-Center-Tool Intel® SSD Data Center Tool (http://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/solid-state-drives/ssd-software/Intel_SSD_D... ISDCT User Guide, page 17 and/or 57).

Also, if not included, please confirm for us which firmware version you're currently using.

You may attach these files to your response by switching to the advanced editor. This option will be located at the top right-hand corner the response box.

well...

after executing bottom command, i'm getting "Selected drive is in a disable logical state."

isdct start –intelssd 0 -NVMeFormat LBAformat=3 SecureEraseSetting=0 ProtectionInformation=0 MetaDataSettings=0

and

isdct start –intelssd 1 -NVMeFormat LBAformat=3 SecureEraseSetting=0 ProtectionInformation=0 MetaDataSettings=0

i've attached the file from "isdct show -a -intelssd"

regards,

SG

Hello S.G.,

This could possibly explain why your SSD was performing strangely on these tests. The "disable logical state" or "ASSERT_" error is considered a catastrophic failure and could be caused by a defective controller or voltage irregularity, among other causes. Based on this you will need to start the warranty replacement process through our support team, in order to have the drive replaced.Best regards,Carlos A.
