The ADATA Legend 860 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD is a high-performance storage solution built for modern desktops, laptops, and next-generation gaming systems. The Legend 860 series leverages PCIe 4.0 x4 and NVMe 1.4 technology to deliver dramatically faster data transfer speeds, shorter load times, and a more responsive computing experience.

Ideal Use Cases

• High-performance desktop and laptop upgrades
• Gaming PCs and PlayStation 5 storage expansion
• Fast boot drives and application storage
• Content creation and large file transfers
• Users upgrading from PCIe 3.0 or SATA SSDs

Powered by advanced 3D TLC NAND flash, the Legend 860 delivers sequential read speeds of up to 6,000MB/s and write speeds of up to 5,000MB/s, making it ideal for demanding workloads such as gaming, content creation, and high-speed system boot drives. Support for SLC caching with Host Memory Buffer (HMB) helps maintain consistent performance, even during intensive data transfers.

To ensure stability and longevity, the SSD features a pre-installed low-profile graphene heatsink that efficiently dissipates heat without interfering with compact system builds. Additional protections include LDPC error correction and AES 256-bit encryption for enhanced data integrity and security. With PlayStation 5 compatibility, Microsoft Direct Storage support, and an endurance rating of 320TBW, the Legend 860 is a versatile choice for both gaming and professional use.
