ADATA Legend 710 1TB M.2 NVME Gen3 Internal Solid State Drive ( SSD )

The ADATA Legend 710 1TB (Model: ALEG-710-1TCS) is a M.2 2280 form-factor internal solid-state drive built on the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface with NVMe 1.4 support. It is designed to deliver a meaningful storage upgrade for desktop PCs and laptops compatible with Intel and AMD platforms that feature an M.2 slot. With sequential read speeds of up to 2,400 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 1,600 MB/s, the Legend 710 handles photo and video editing workflows, large file transfers, and everyday multitasking with considerably less wait time than traditional SATA drives. The drive uses 3D NAND flash memory combined with SLC caching and Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, which allows the drive to borrow a small portion of system DRAM to act as a cache buffer, improving random read performance without requiring dedicated DRAM on the module itself. Thermal management is addressed through an included low-profile heatsink finished in a blue and gold colour scheme. According to ADATA, the heatsink lowers operating temperature by up to 15%, helping the drive maintain consistent performance during sustained workloads. With the heatsink attached, the drive measures 80 x 22 x 3.13 mm and weighs 9 g; without it, height drops to 2.15 mm and weight to 6.2 g — useful to know if clearance is tight in slim laptops or small-form-factor builds. Data integrity is protected by Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) hardware error-correction technology, while AES 256-bit encryption support adds a layer of security for sensitive files. Shock resistance is rated at 1,500 G / 0.5 ms, making the drive resilient to incidental drops or vibration in mobile use cases. ADATA bundles SSD Toolbox and Migration Utility software, allowing users to monitor drive health and clone an existing drive to the Legend 710 without a clean reinstall.
