Curious what everyone else is getting. Here's mine using a Samsung 1tb 970 EVO+ NVME

Pretty solid numbers for that drive. Here is what mine gets:

Sadly my read performance is lacking quite a bit. Still working on solutions to pump those numbers up!

Nice! What drive set up are you using?

I am using a single Inland 2TB NVMe SSD: https://www.microcenter.com/product/608649/inland-premium-2tb-ssd-3d-nand-m2-2280-pcie-nvme-30-x4-internal-solid-state-drive. To improve my performance and longevity of the drive, I am using a block level cache to let my excess memory cache in place of the drive. Since all mundane writes are deferred to my RAM instead of my SSD, the lifespan is improved while also improving performance on repetitive tasks and programs that I access more frequently.

Here is what my RAM performance currently looks like:

DDR4 4400 C19 kit clocked at 4000 c15-15-15-30 with a Command Rate of 2, 4x8GB configuration (single rank). This configuration makes a pretty significant difference in performance for things that rely on heavy repetitive usage of your disk. Open-world games that stream textures such as Grand Theft Auto, Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption and Minecraft all show much more stable framerates when loading in streamed textures when completely removing a disk I/O bottleneck. 

With how cheap RAM has gotten nowadays, I recommend this option to anyone looking to improve their I/O performance all around.

Interesting to see the difference between this and the Samsung in the OP for the RND4k Q1T1.
