Performance, Official label continuous read and write speeds are 1450MB/s and 640MB/s, 4K read/write (8GB span) up to 250K and 145K IOPS. Current 32GB sequential read/write extremum 1350MB/s and 290MB/s, 4K 8GB read/write is 240K and 65K, the upgrade can be said to be very significant, especially writing, reaching as much as 120%.
