Hello,
i have one Intel P4600 DC with 4TB and one Samsung 850 EVO 500GB (normal SATA). Even with an old Intel SSD 520 Series the results in reading are not that different!
How is it possible that with small files the Samsung SATA SSD outperforms the Intel NVMe SSD (in read speed)?
The P4600 ist updated with the latest Firmware (with the current datacenter tool) and runs with the latest intel drivers (the windows drivers are even slower!)
Is this a normal behavior or a configuration/software problem?

Intel 520 Series (SATA 3.0):
