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

The ADATA Legend 710 2TB is a compact M.2 2280 form-factor solid-state drive built on the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface and supporting the NVMe 1.4 protocol. Designed for both desktop PCs and laptops on current Intel and AMD platforms, it delivers sequential read speeds of up to 2,400 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 1,800 MB/s, making large file transfers, game loading, and creative workloads noticeably faster than conventional SATA drives. The drive ships with an integrated heat sink finished in a blue and gold colour scheme. According to ADATA, the heat sink reduces operating temperatures by up to 15%, helping the drive maintain consistent throughput during sustained workloads. For users who need a lower-profile installation, the heat sink is removable; without it the drive measures 80 × 22 × 2.15 mm and weighs just 6.2 g. Performance is further supported by SLC caching and Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, which borrows a portion of system DRAM to accelerate random read and write operations — rated at up to 200K and 150K IOPS (4 KB) respectively. Data integrity is handled by LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) error-correction and AES 256-bit hardware encryption, keeping your files both accurate and secure. Reliability figures are strong for this class of drive: a rated endurance of 520 TBW (Terabytes Written), an MTBF of 1,500,000 hours, and a shock resistance of 1,500 G / 0.5 ms. Operating temperature range is 0 °C to 70 °C, with storage rated 40 °C to 85 °C. ADATA's SSD ToolBox software provides firmware update management, S.M.A.R.T. health monitoring, operating temperature readouts, and capacity tracking — useful for long-term drive maintenance.
