Device Type IOPS Interface Notes
Simple SLC SSD SSD ~400 IOPS[citation needed] SATA 3 Gbit/s
Intel X25-M G2 (MLC) SSD ~8,600 IOPS[11] SATA 3 Gbit/s Intel's data sheet[12] claims 6,600/8,600 IOPS (80 GB/160 GB version) and 35,000 IOPS for random 4 KB writes and reads, respectively.
Intel X25-E (SLC) SSD ~5,000 IOPS[13] SATA 3 Gbit/s Intel's data sheet[14] claims 3,300 IOPS and 35,000 IOPS for writes and reads, respectively. 5,000 IOPS are measured for a mix. Intel X25-E G1 has around 3 times higher IOPS compared to the Intel X25-M G2.[15]
G.Skill Phoenix Pro SSD ~20,000 IOPS[16] SATA 3 Gbit/s SandForce-1200 based SSD drives with enhanced firmware, states up to 50,000 IOPS, but benchmarking shows for this particular drive ~25,000 IOPS for random read and ~15,000 IOPS for random write.[16]
