| Performance and connectivity | |
| Maximum IOPS | 5,000,000 |
| Maximum throughput | 110 GB/s |
| Latency | 100 µs |
| Conditions | Datasheet DS-4082: up to 5,000,000 IOPS, 110 GBps read / 57 GBps write (peak system performance; varies with workload, protocol and media); 'response times under 100 microseconds' is an EF-Series family claim. cache_gb_max is the datasheet 'controller memory' figure. power_w is typical (datasheet). host_ports_max is the largest single-protocol port count in the datasheet 'IO connectivity per array'. 'ib' denotes NVMe/IB and SRP/IB host connectivity. raw_tb_max is the datasheet 1.5 PB (24 NVMe SSDs); docs add SAS expansion support from SANtricity 12.10 without a published capacity maximum. NVMe/TCP (200Gb) host interface listed in docs. |
