ADATA Technology has recently launched the ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO PCIe Gen5 solid state drive. Like its predecessor, the LEGEND 970 PRO adopts a space-saving efficient active cooled heatsink that reduces drive temperatures by a phenomenal 20%. However, the LEGEND 970 PRO takes it to the next level by being the only PCIe Gen5 SSD on the market to power its micro-fan directly through the M.2 slot. This revolutionary SSD delivers breakneck read/write speeds of 14,000/11,000MB/s and is available in capabilities up to 4TB. With the added advantage of active cooling, the LEGEND 970 PRO can run long-term at maximum speeds in a stable manner without throttling or crashing. The ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO PCIe Gen5 SSD is truly the best collaborator on complex and demanding projects.
Active cooling evolved
The LEGEND 970 PRO utilizes a double-layered aluminum heatsink designed with integral air ducts to divert hot and cold air while the built-in micro-fan accelerates heat discharge. This revolutionary active cooling architecture precipitates a compact form factor that supports installation in tight spaces and allows the LEGEND 970 PRO to be used in systems where oversized bulky heatsinks cannot. In addition, the LEGEND 970 PRO is the only actively cooled SSD on the market that draws fan power from the M.2 slot, eliminating the clutter and hassle of an additional power cable.
Unrivaled performance
The LEGEND 970 PRO is equipped with the latest generation PCIe Gen5 x4 transmission interface which meets the NVMe 2.0 standard and delivers a sequential read/write speed of 14,000/11,000MB/s. It is fully backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 platforms. The LEGEND 970 PRO is also built with an SLC cache and DRAM Cache Buffer, offering unique advantages in system loading and data caching and supplies excellent 1,800K/1,300K IOPS random read/write to improve multi-tasking efficiency. Furthermore, it supports the latest Intel and AMD platforms, allowing users to produce 3D animation, AI renders, or graphic creations with unprecedented ease.
Unmatched durability and quality
The LEGEND 970 PRO is manufactured with rigorously selected 232-layer 3D NAND flash memory and is available in generous capacities of up to 4TB. The drive utilizes a variety of data protection and correction technologies to significantly increase its TBW (Total Bytes Written) and durability. Various mechanisms such as LDPC (Low Density Parity Check Code) error correction, TCG OPAL, and other high-level encryption technologies are used to ensure data transmission accuracy and file security.
The SSD Toolbox is free to download and allows users to instantly grasp hard drive status and the LEGEND 970 PRO comes with a limited 5-year warranty.
