ADATA LEGEND 710 256GB PCIe Gen3 x4 SSD

The ADATA LEGEND 710 is a 256GB internal solid state drive built on an M.2 2280 form factor with a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface. It supports the NVMe 1.4 protocol and includes an integrated heat sink designed to lower operating temperatures by 15 percent. The drive targets creators and general users seeking a responsive storage upgrade for compatible desktops or laptops.

Upgrading from slower storage with NVMe 1.4 support

This drive replaces older mechanical hard drives or entry-level SSDs that lack NVMe 1.4 support or a PCIe Gen3 x4 connection. The jump is worth it when the host platform can utilise the NVMe protocol to deliver sustained read speeds up to 2,400MB per second and write speeds up to 1,800MB per second. LDPC error correction and AES 256-bit encryption maintain data integrity and security during the transition.

256GB capacity with HMB for everyday workloads

The 256GB capacity provides enough headroom for operating systems, creative applications and active project files. Host Memory Buffer support allows the controller to use system RAM for mapping tables, sustaining performance during mixed workloads. The drive runs out of space quickly with large media libraries or multiple virtual machines, requiring a higher-capacity model for those scenarios.

Questions about this item

Does the 2280 form factor need a specific M.2 slot length?

The 2280 designation means the drive is 80 mm long, so the motherboard or laptop must provide an M.2 slot that accepts 2280-length modules.

What is the correct way to fit the integrated heat sink during installation?

Insert the drive at an angle into the M.2 socket, press it flat, and secure it with the single retention screw; do not remove the attached heat sink or add thermal pads.

Will the 256 GB capacity require firmware updates or NAND replacement over time?

The drive supports NVMe 1.4 and includes LDPC error correction plus AES 256-bit encryption, so firmware updates can be applied via the OS when released, while the NAND is rated for the drive's usable lifespan without user replacement.
