  • Communication Protocol

    Most SSDs use SATA III or PCI Express.

    Almost all 2.5" SSDs connect via SATA III while most M.2 SSDs connect via PCI Express.


    PCI Express connection offers higher speeds, but this is mainly noticeable in demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and is not necessary for everyday use.

  • Write Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data recording. The larger the size, the faster the data recording.

    For an SSD that uses the SATA III protocol, the average recording speed is 300MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 1200MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

It is the ideal solution for those seeking top performance that far surpasses traditional SSDs, offering a smooth and lag-free workflow.

Advanced NVMe 2.0 Technology

The LEGEND 860 incorporates the NVMe 2.0 protocol, which optimizes communication between the drive and your system. Combined with SLC caching technology, the SSD maintains high performance even during extended tasks such as video rendering or multitasking. Support for this modern architecture ensures that your computer stays at the cutting edge of technology, ready to handle the most demanding applications.

Optimized Heat Management

Stable performance requires proper cooling, and the ADATA LEGEND 860 features a lightweight heatsink design that effectively dissipates heat. This cooling system is crucial for gaming and intensive computing tasks, as it prevents thermal throttling and keeps speeds consistent. Its sleek and slim design allows for easy installation in the M.2 2280 form factor, making it a perfect fit for laptops and desktops.

Top Reliability and Durability

Designed to endure, the SSD features an impressive MTBF of 2,000,000 hours, ensuring long-term, trouble-free operation. The shock resistance of 1500G/0.5ms protects your data from physical damage, making it extremely reliable for portable devices. Additionally, advanced error correction technologies (LDPC) ensure the integrity of your files, providing the security every professional creator needs.

The Ultimate Choice for Gamers & Creators

Whether you are a gamer seeking the fastest respawn or a content creator editing 4K videos, the 500GB capacity of the LEGEND 860 offers the necessary space and speed required. Full compatibility with Intel and AMD platforms ensures that your upgrade will be simple and effective. This drive is a powerful choice that transforms your system’s responsiveness, delivering professional results in every use.

Guaranteed Quality and Compatibility

ADATA guarantees the build quality of the LEGEND 860, using strictly selected memory chips that withstand the test of time. The M.2 2280 design is compatible with the majority of modern motherboards, while support for the latest error correction technologies provides an extra layer of protection. Invest in an SSD that combines high performance with security, ensuring that your system will remain productive for years to come.

Form Factor
M.2 (Type 2280)

Form Factor

The term form factor refers to the physical size of SSDs. The motherboard must support the form factor of the SSD in order for it to be installed.


The higher speeds offered by an NVMe drive are mainly applicable to demanding applications (such as high-definition video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and are not necessary for everyday use.

M.2 (Type 2280)
The motherboard must support the form factor in order for the SSD to be installed on it. It is worth noting that M.2 drives are divided into those that use the SATA protocol and those that use PCI Express. Of the SSDs that use the PCI Express protocol, most also support NVMe technology, which allows them even faster speeds if supported by the motherboard.
