Available for purchase, the Adata M.2 80mm (2280) format SSD disk with a large volume of 1 TB.
This SSD drive has a compact and modern M.2 connector.
This is a fast-acting NVME SSD drive, based on PCIe technology. It allows data to be transmitted in parallel over multiple channels, ensuring excellent performance. This type of drive is perfectly suited for activities such as processing large files, gaming, and video editing, where maximum data transmission speed is required.
7400 MB/s – this is the data reading speed that this SSD disk is capable of reaching. However, we must remember one crucial nuance - "fast" disks may not show the performance promised by the manufacturer if adequate cooling is not provided.
The write speed (Sequential write speed) of this SSD is 6800 MB/s. However, if adequate cooling is not provided, "fast" drives may not achieve the speeds guaranteed by the manufacturer.
A stable data reading and writing speed during prolonged work is ensured by a cooler or heat sink with which this SSD drive is equipped. It helps to maintain memory chips at an optimal temperature. There is no particular need to worry if you choose a "fast" disc without a heat sink, as almost always (99% of cases) the system board will be equipped with a built-in M.2 slot cooling solution.
This is an SSD disk in the M.2 80mm (2280) format.
This SSD disk has a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. Keep in mind that if you insert a disk with a newer interface (for example, with PCIe 4.0 or 5.0) into an older interface slot (for example, PCIe 3.0), the disk speed will decrease because the disk will not have sufficient data transfer speed (Bandwidth).
Sequential read speed or the mean data reading speed is the most important criterion of the high-speed operation of the SSD. The data from the SSD will be read much more often than written to it because the operating system stores the processed data in the RAM in most cases.
If you want the reading speed of the purchased SSD to exceed the speed of the classic HDD considerably you should choose the SSD with the reading speed of 200 MB/s or above. The additional increase in the performance will be achieved on the account of the data search (SeekTime) which is of much higher level with SSDs than any HDD.
The writing speed is almost as important as the reading speed. Also this parameter determines the performance of the SSD, however, as the writing to the disc happens not as often as the data reading and average user will find it subjectively difficult to distinguish between any speed above 100 MB/s and higher indices, except the cases when the SSD is used in a server, for audio/video recording, etc.
Thanks to the small size provided by the SSD technology the standard size of the discs is 2.5", and it is suitable for an average portable computer. It is possible to install the 2.5" disc in the desktop computer if the transition 2.5" -> 3.5" is used, and this transition can be bought at a low cost at TopPC.fi section"Adapteri". The discs with the format 2.5" + 3.5" have this transition included.
1.8" discs are intended for the ultra-compact class portable computers.
PCI-Express SSDs are intended for desktop computers with a free PCI-Express plug available. This technology in most cases is used for ensuring the performance that exceeds the possibilities of other types of connections.
SSDs with SATAII and SATAIII connection are compatible with the connections of both types in the motherboard. Still, it has to be taken into account that the motherboard SATAII connection can provide maximum about 300 MB/s transmission capacity which can reduce the actual transmission capacity of the SSDs whose reading and/or writing speed exceeds this level to the capacity limits of the SATAII.
The situation is similar with the PCI-Express and SATAIII connection slots. Although the SATAIII standard can provide up to 600 MB/s data transmission capacity there are SSDs with the speed exceeding this limit, in this case the manufacturer chooses the PCI-Express connection slot with a higher transmission capacity. The PCI-Express discs cannot be connected to the portable computer.

Description - LEGEND 960 MAX With a finned heatsink design and support for the latest PCIe 4.0 interface, the LEGEND 960 MAX drive delivers incredible read and write speeds of up to 7400/6800 MB/s while maintaining stable performance. What's more, not only can the LEGEND 960 MAX drive hold up to 4TB, making it ideal for use as a memory expansion for the PS5 console, but it also supports the latest Intel and AMD platforms, making it an extremely valuable product for all creatives! Redefining the speed of creative work The LEGEND 960 MAX drive supports the latest PCIe Gen4x4 interface, which is compliant with the NVMe 1.4 standard. It offers incredible creative power and supports the latest Intel and AMD platforms, turning the device into an unbeatable power machine. Ultimate performance for creators The LEGEND 960 MAX drive delivers sequential read and write speeds of 7400/6800 MB per second, up to 4 times faster than a standard PCIe Gen3 SSD and 13 times faster than a SATA SSD. It is backward-compatible with the PCIe 3.0 interface and is designed for professionals who challenge the impossible. Maximum heat dissipation, maximum stability The LEGEND 960 MAX drive's cooling system includes a thorough aluminium alloy coating on the drive to maximise heat dissipation. With multi-layered cooling fins, cool air flows through the metal structure and pushes out hot air. The unique convection cooling design reduces SSD temperatures by 40% and ensures stable performance. * The installation of a heatsink for this SSD is required. Before installing the SSD heatsink, the motherboard's built-in M.2 heatsink must be removed to avoid damaging the product by trying to install two heatsinks at the same time. Perfect compatibility with PS5 console The size of the LEGEND 960 MAX drive is compatible with the PS5 console slot and can be installed as a memory expansion to take the PS5 console's performance to the next level. With the LEGEND 960 MAX drive, you can play AAA games without lag and show off your skills to the world! * According to Sony, even though the read and write speeds exceed the official standard, not all games will achieve the same performance as the PS5 console's built-in SSD. ** When used with the PS5 console, the sequential read speed is 6400 MB/s for all capacities. Cooling to support stable operation The difference is in the detail. As a result of thorough convection cooling research, ADATA offers the unique cooling fins of the LEGEND 960 MAX drive, which significantly reduce the temperature of the SSD by up to 40%. Thanks to the unique cooling system, you can enjoy a smooth gaming experience. 4TB capacity? Challenge accepted Thanks to the applicable 3D flash memory, the LEGEND 960 MAX drive offers capacities of up to 4TB. In addition, it is equipped with various security and correction technologies and has a high TBW (Total Bytes Written) rating for endurance and reliability.
