LEGEND 960 supports the latest PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, which meets the NVMe 1.4 standard. It offers excellent read and write performance, expanded device connectivity, and support for the latest Intel and AMD platforms. Whether on a desktop or notebook PC, get your creativity up to speed.LEGEND 960 delivers sequential read and write speed of 7,400/6,000MB per second, which is up to 4 times faster than a standard PCIe Gen3 SSD and 13 times faster than a SATA SSD. It is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 and made for creating, whether virtual design, animation, or game development!LEGEND 960 supports PCIe 4.0 and works with PS5 consoles as expanded storage. Not only does its size conform to the slot design, it also provides for smooth and non-laggy gaming.With 3D-stacked flash memory, the LEGEND 960 provides you with capacities of up to 1TB. What's more, it comes with various protection and correction technologies, and high TBW (Total Bytes Written) for durability and reliability. The LEGEND 960's black heat sink design with bronzing trimming and sandblasted surfaces look cool and keep things cool. Through a cutting-edge surface treatment, it dissipates heat incredibly effectively reducing temperature. LEGEND 960 comes with SLC Caching and DRAM Cache Buffer for advantages in system loading and data caching. It features 4K random read/write of up to 730K/610K IOPS for smoother multitasking.LDPC (Low Density Parity check Code) and AES 256-bit encryption ensure data accuracy and file security.ADATA SSD Toolbox allows for the monitoring of drive health and remaining life through Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) attributes. It also lets you keep track of the current operating temperature, capacity, and total space used, plus keeps you up-to-date on firmware.LEGEND series solid state drives use high-quality chips that can withstand the test of time and space. They undergo a rigorous verification and testing process to ensure reliability. If that wasn't enough, they come backed by a 5-year warranty.KEY FEATURES:
