Solidigm D7-PS1010 Performance

To test the Solidigm PS1010 Gen5 SSD, we use a Dell PowerEdge R760 in our test lab. It is a highly versatile 2U rackmount server that supports two 4th generation Intel Xeon processors and has configurations that support up to 24 NVMe drives. This server is intended for mixed workloads, databases, and VDI.

Dell PowerEdge R760 Configuration

  • Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6430 (32 cores/64 threads, 1.9GHz base)
  • 1TB DDR5 RAM
  • Ubuntu 22.04

For ultimate flexibility, we also worked with Serial Cables, who supplied us with an 8-bay PCIe Gen5 JBOF for U.2/U.3, M.2, and EDSFF SSD testing. This allows us to test all current and emerging drive types on the same test hardware.

Workload Benchmarking

When benchmarking storage devices, application testing is best, and synthetic testing is second. While not a perfect representation of actual workloads, synthetic tests help baseline storage devices with a repeatability factor that makes it easy to compare apples-to-apples between competing solutions. These workloads offer a range of testing profiles ranging from “four corners” tests and common database transfer size tests to trace captures from different VDI environments.

For this review, we compare the Solidigm PS1010 to the Samsung PM1743, and KIOXIA CM7-R SSDs across all workloads.

fio Peak Performance Analysis

The fio script package we leveraged is an automated script set up to precondition and lightly test drives in a consistent manner, found here on github. We used this to perform 256K sequential read and write tests for peak bandwidth and 4K random read and write tests for peak throughput.

Peak Throughput and Bandwidth
Solidigm PS1010 7.68TB KIOXIA CM7-R 7.68TB Samsung PM1743 7.68TB
256K sequential read (1T/64Q) 14,848MB/s 12,092MB/s 14,495MB/s
256K sequential write (1T/64Q) 7,117MB/s 5,796MB/s 6,052MB/s
4K random read (8T/32Q) 2,084,960 IOPS 1,963,066 IOPS 1,900,838 IOPS
4K random write (8T/32Q) 408,721 IOPS 301,061 IOPS 319,758 IOPS

The Solidigm PS1010 7.68TB SSD demonstrates outstanding performance in several key areas compared to its competitors. It leads in 256K sequential read speed at 14,848 MB/s, surpassing KIOXIA CM7-R and Samsung PM1743, making it ideal for read-intensive applications.

In 256K sequential write operations, it performs well at 7,117 MB/s. The PS1010 also shows strong 4K random read performance with 2,084,960 IOPS, outpacing the KIOXIA and Samsung drives. In 4K random writes, the PS1010 had a strong showing, achieving 408,721 IOPS, again leading in front of the Samsung and KIOXIA models.

VDBench Workload Analysis

These tests leverage the typical vdBench workload generator, with a scripting engine to automate and capture results over a large compute testing cluster. This allows us to repeat the same workloads across various storage devices, including flash arrays and individual storage devices. Our testing process for these benchmarks fills the entire drive surface with data and then partitions a drive section equal to 25% of the drive capacity to simulate how the drive might respond to application workloads. This differs from full entropy tests, which use 100 percent of the drive and take them into a steady state. As a result, these figures reflect higher-sustained write speeds.

Profiles:

  • 4K Random Read: 100% Read, 128 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 4K Random Write: 100% Write, 128 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 64K Random Read: 100% Read, 128 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 64K Random Write: 100% Write, 128 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 16K Sequential Read: 100% Read, 32 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 16K Sequential Write: 100% Write, 16 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 64K Sequential Read: 100% Read, 32 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 64K Sequential Write: 100% Write, 16 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • 4K, 8K, and 16K 70R/30W Random Mix, 64 threads, 0-120% iorate
  • Synthetic Database: SQL
  • VDI Full Clone and Linked Clone Traces

To test the Solidigm PS1010 Gen5 SSD, we use a Dell PowerEdge R760 in our test lab. It is a highly versatile 2U rackmount server that supports two 4th generation Intel Xeon processors and has configurations that support up to 24 NVMe drives. This server is intended for mixed workloads, databases, and VDI.

Dell PowerEdge R760 Configuration

  • Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6430 (32 cores/64 threads, 1.9GHz base)
  • 1TB DDR5 RAM
  • Ubuntu 22.04

For ultimate flexibility, we also worked with Serial Cables, who supplied us with an 8-bay PCIe Gen5 JBOF for U.2/U.3, M.2, and EDSFF SSD testing. This allows us to test all current and emerging drive types on the same test hardware.

Workload Benchmarking

When benchmarking storage devices, application testing is best, and synthetic testing is second. While not a perfect representation of actual workloads, synthetic tests help baseline storage devices with a repeatability factor that makes it easy to compare apples-to-apples between competing solutions. These workloads offer a range of testing profiles ranging from “four corners” tests and common database transfer size tests to trace captures from different VDI environments.

For this review, we compare the Solidigm PS1010 to the Samsung PM1743, and KIOXIA CM7-R SSDs across all workloads.

fio Peak Performance Analysis

The fio script package we leveraged is an automated script set up to precondition and lightly test drives in a consistent manner, found here on github. We used this to perform 256K sequential read and write tests for peak bandwidth and 4K random read and write tests for peak throughput.

Peak Throughput and Bandwidth
Solidigm PS1010 7.68TB KIOXIA CM7-R 7.68TB Samsung PM1743 7.68TB
256K sequential read (1T/64Q) 14,848MB/s 12,092MB/s 14,495MB/s
256K sequential write (1T/64Q) 7,117MB/s 5,796MB/s 6,052MB/s
4K random read (8T/32Q) 2,084,960 IOPS 1,963,066 IOPS 1,900,838 IOPS
4K random write (8T/32Q) 408,721 IOPS 301,061 IOPS 319,758 IOPS

The Solidigm PS1010 7.68TB SSD demonstrates outstanding performance in several key areas compared to its competitors. It leads in 256K sequential read speed at 14,848 MB/s, surpassing KIOXIA CM7-R and Samsung PM1743, making it ideal for read-intensive applications.

In 256K sequential write operations, it performs well at 7,117 MB/s. The PS1010 also shows strong 4K random read performance with 2,084,960 IOPS, outpacing the KIOXIA and Samsung drives. In 4K random writes, the PS1010 had a strong showing, achieving 408,721 IOPS, again leading in front of the Samsung and KIOXIA models.

VDBench Workload Analysis

These tests leverage the typical vdBench workload generator, with a scripting engine to automate and capture results over a large compute testing cluster. This allows us to repeat the same workloads across various storage devices, including flash arrays and individual storage devices. Our testing process for these benchmarks fills the entire drive surface with data and then partitions a drive section equal to 25% of the drive capacity to simulate how the drive might respond to application workloads. This differs from full entropy tests, which use 100 percent of the drive and take them into a steady state. As a result, these figures reflect higher-sustained write speeds.
