SSD M.2 ADATA LEGEND 710 1 TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe — 2400 MB/s read, 1800 MB/s write, 3D NAND, 2280

The ADATA LEGEND 710 1 TB is an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD that uses PCIe Gen3 x4 and NVMe 1.4 to provide sustained read speeds up to 2400 MB/s and write speeds up to 1800 MB/s. Designed for desktop PCs and laptops with Intel and AMD platforms, this 3D NAND drive offers a balance of performance, capacity and endurance for everyday computing and creative workflows.

Advantages

The LEGEND 710 combines SLC caching and Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology to improve responsiveness in typical desktop and laptop tasks. Its integrated heatsink with a blue finish and gold trim reduces operating temperatures by around 15% to support stable performance, while LDPC error correction and AES-256 encryption protect data integrity and security. The SSD ToolBox utility enables firmware updates and monitoring via S.M.A.R.T. attributes for drive health and remaining life.

Suitable for

• Upgrading laptops and desktop PCs that support M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 x4
• Content creation workflows requiring fast read/write speeds (photo, video editing)
• General productivity, gaming, and system boot drive

Key specifications

• Form factor: M.2 2280
• Interface: PCIe 3.0 x4, NVMe 1.4
• Capacity: 1 TB (1000 GB)
• Sequential read speed: up to 2400 MB/s

• Weight: 0.009 kg

How to use

Install the M.2 2280 SSD into a compatible M.2 PCIe slot on your desktop or laptop motherboard following the system manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the BIOS/UEFI recognizes NVMe drives and, after installation, initialize and format the drive within your operating system. Use the supplied or downloadable SSD ToolBox to check firmware versions, monitor S.M.A.R.T. attributes and perform maintenance tasks.

Recommendations

For best long-term performance, enable firmware updates through SSD ToolBox, ensure proper airflow in the system to complement the heatsink, and avoid filling the drive to full capacity to maintain optimal write performance.
