Blue heatsink with gold trim on M.2 2280 NVMe SSD

ADATA

ADATA LEGEND 710 512GB Gen3 x4 M.2 2280 internal SSD

SKU CH-022W-WH2M8

PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe drive with a built-in heatsink, delivering up to 2,000/1,600 MB/s for creative workloads

  • Up to 2,000 MB/s read speed via PCIe Gen3 x4
  • Up to 1,600 MB/s write speed via PCIe Gen3 x4
  • Built-in heatsink lowers operating temperature for stable performance
  • Supports NVMe 1.3 with LDPC error correction

ADATA LEGEND 710 512GB Gen3 x4 M.2 2280

The ADATA LEGEND 710 is a 512GB internal SSD built on a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface with NVMe 1.3 support. It includes an integrated heatsink to maintain lower operating temperatures during sustained workloads. The drive is designed as a direct upgrade for compatible desktop PCs and laptops.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Creators and general users seeking a straightforward NVMe upgrade with thermal management will find this drive a practical fit. Systems limited to PCIe Gen3 or older M.2 slots can use the drive at its rated speeds. Builders needing higher throughput or larger capacities should consider faster Gen4 or Gen5 alternatives.

Capacity and headroom

The 512GB capacity provides ample space for operating systems, creative applications, and active project files. Sequential reads reach up to 2,000 MB/s and writes up to 1,600 MB/s for smooth file transfers. Heavy multi-tasking or very large media libraries may eventually exceed the available headroom.

Highlights

  • Up to 2,000 MB/s read speed via PCIe Gen3 x4
  • Up to 1,600 MB/s write speed via PCIe Gen3 x4
  • Built-in heatsink lowers operating temperature for stable performance
  • Supports NVMe 1.3 with LDPC error correction
  • Host Memory Buffer support boosts efficiency on compatible systems

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need an M.2 slot with PCIe Gen3 x4 lanes for the LEGEND 710 512GB to work?

Yes, the drive uses the M.2 2280 form factor and requires a motherboard slot wired for PCIe Gen3 x4 to operate at its rated speeds of up to 2,000 MB/s read and 1,600 MB/s write.

Will the LEGEND 710 512GB run on an older platform that only supports NVMe 1.3?

The drive supports NVMe 1.3, so it is compatible with platforms that implement that specification; the integrated heat sink helps maintain performance on older systems that may have less airflow.

How can I verify the LEGEND 710 512GB is delivering its rated 2,000 MB/s read and 1,600 MB/s write after installation?

Run a standard NVMe benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark on an empty drive; sequential results should approach the rated figures if the slot provides PCIe Gen3 x4 bandwidth and thermal throttling is not active.
