-|===
-|Field |Description
-
-|*Host Read Commands*
-|Number of host read commands received during the reporting period.
-
-|*Host Read Blocks*
-|Number of 512-byte blocks requested during the reporting period.
-
-|*Average Read Size*
-|Average Read size is calculated using (Host Read Blocks/Host Read Commands).
-
-|*Host Read Cache Hit Commands*
-|Number of host read commands that serviced entirely from the on-board read
-cache during the reporting period. No access to the NAND flash memory was required.
-This count is only updated if the entire command was serviced from the cache memory.
-
-|*Host Read Cache Hit Percentage*
-|Percentage of host read commands satisfied from the cache.
-
-|*Host Read Cache Hit Blocks*
-|Number of 512-byte blocks of data that have been returned for Host Read Cache Hit
-Commands during the reporting period. This count is only updated with the blocks
-returned for host read commands that were serviced entirely from cache memory.
-
-|*Average Read Cache Hit Size*
-|Average size of read commands satisfied from the cache.
-
-|*Host Read Commands Stalled*
-|Number of host read commands that were stalled due to a lack of resources within
-the SSD during the reporting period (NAND flash command queue full, low cache page count,
-cache page contention, etc.). Commands are not considered stalled if the only reason for
-the delay was waiting for the data to be physically read from the NAND flash. It is normal
-to expect this count to equal zero on heavily utilized systems.
-
-|*Host Read Commands Stalled Percentage*
-|Percentage of read commands that were stalled. If the figure is consistently high,
-then consideration should be given to spreading the data across multiple SSDs.
-
-|*Host Write Commands*
-|Number of host write commands received during the reporting period.
-
-|*Host Write Blocks*
-|Number of 512-byte blocks written during the reporting period.
-
-|*Average Write Size*
-|Average Write size calculated using (Host Write Blocks/Host Write Commands).
-
-|*Host Write Odd Start Commands*
-|Number of host write commands that started on a non-aligned boundary during
-the reporting period. The size of the boundary alignment is normally 4K; therefore
-this returns the number of commands that started on a non-4K aligned boundary.
-The SSD requires slightly more time to process non-aligned write commands than it
-does to process aligned write commands.
-
-|*Host Write Odd Start Commands Percentage*
-|Percentage of host write commands that started on a non-aligned boundary. If this
-figure is equal to or near 100%, and the NAND Read Before Write value is also high,
-then the user should investigate the possibility of offsetting the file system. For
-Microsoft Windows systems, the user can use Diskpart. For Unix-based operating systems,
-there is normally a method whereby file system partitions can be placed where required.
-
-|*Host Write Odd End Commands*
-|Number of host write commands that ended on a non-aligned boundary during the
-reporting period. The size of the boundary alignment is normally 4K; therefore this
-returns the number of commands that ended on a non-4K aligned boundary.
-
-|*Host Write Odd End Commands Percentage*
-|Percentage of host write commands that ended on a non-aligned boundary.
-
-|*Host Write Commands Stalled*
-|Number of host write commands that were stalled due to a lack of resources within the
-SSD during the reporting period. The most likely cause is that the write data was being
-received faster than it could be saved to the NAND flash memory. If there was a large
-volume of read commands being processed simultaneously, then other causes might include
-the NAND flash command queue being full, low cache page count, or cache page contention, etc.
-It is normal to expect this count to be non-zero on heavily utilized systems.
-
-|*Host Write Commands Stalled Percentage*
-|Percentage of write commands that were stalled. If the figure is consistently high, then
-consideration should be given to spreading the data across multiple SSDs.
-
-|*NAND Read Commands*
-|Number of read commands issued to the NAND devices during the reporting period.
-This figure will normally be much higher than the host read commands figure, as the data
-needed to satisfy a single host read command may be spread across several NAND flash devices.
-
-|*NAND Read Blocks*
-|Number of 512-byte blocks requested from NAND flash devices during the reporting period.
-This figure would normally be about the same as the host read blocks figure
-
-|*Average NAND Read Size*
-|Average size of NAND read commands.
-
-|*NAND Write Commands*
-|Number of write commands issued to the NAND devices during the reporting period.
-There is no real correlation between the number of host write commands issued and the
-number of NAND Write Commands.
-
-|*NAND Write Blocks*
-|Number of 512-byte blocks written to the NAND flash devices during the reporting period.
-This figure would normally be about the same as the host write blocks figure.
-
-|*Average NAND Write Size*
-|Average size of NAND write commands. This figure should never be greater than 128K, as
-this is the maximum size write that is ever issued to a NAND device.
-
-|*NAND Read Before Write*
-|This is the number of read before write operations that were required to process
-non-aligned host write commands during the reporting period. See Host Write Odd Start
-Commands and Host Write Odd End Commands. NAND Read Before Write operations have
-a detrimental effect on the overall performance of the device.
