Add sample job for doing a quick SSD performance analysis

Nothing SSD special about it really, but this sort of test is
useful on SSD drives to see if they are crap or not.

+# in flight commands, so it may also be interesting to increase the queue

+# large of a queue depth, so 4 is more representative of normal use.
