Adata Legend 860 500GB NVMe Gen4 SSD

The Adata Legend 860 (SLEG-860-500GCS) delivers PCIe Gen4 performance in a compact M.2 2280 form factor. With sequential read speeds up to 5000 MB/s and write speeds reaching 3000 MB/s, this 500GB NVMe SSD provides the bandwidth needed for demanding applications, gaming, and content creation workflows.

PCIe Gen4 Performance

Built on PCIe Gen4 technology, the Legend 860 offers significantly faster data transfer rates compared to Gen3 drives. The 5000 MB/s read speed handles large file transfers, game loading, and system boot times efficiently, while the 3000 MB/s write speed ensures responsive performance during intensive workloads.

Integrated Heatsink Design

This drive includes an integrated heatsink that helps dissipate heat during sustained operations. The thermal solution maintains optimal operating temperatures, preventing thermal throttling that can impact performance during extended use. The M.2 2280 form factor with heatsink fits most modern motherboards and laptop configurations that support standard M.2 slots.

500GB Storage Capacity

The 500GB capacity provides sufficient space for operating systems, frequently used applications, and active project files. This capacity strikes a balance between performance and storage needs for users who prioritize speed for their primary drive while maintaining secondary storage for larger archives.
