That's 20000iops with 512bytes block, not so bad (with a single queue depth)


>>Model: ATA CT480BX500SSD1

Is a a crucial ssd ? (Hp sell you a consumer ssd on a server ?)
The performance don't seem to bad. (but with a dd /dev/zero bench, difficult to say real performance.
Maybe benching with fio, different block size, sequential/random and bigger iodepth could confirme real performance.
