If you’ve already upgraded to a current-gen motherboard, you may have been wondering how you were supposed to take advantage of the PCIe 5.0 x4 m.2 slot now commonly found on those boards. You could populate the slot with a PCIe 4.0 SSD, but you’d be missing out on performance potential. ADATA has another option with the LEGEND 970 Gen 5 SSD.
This new M.2 NVMe SSD delivers on speed, exceeding what PCIe 4.0 x4 SSDs were capable of. The ADATA LEGEND 970 Gen 5 SSD taps into the extra bandwidth of PCIe 5.0 to deliver both read and write speeds up to 10,000MB/s. That’s fast enough to read the entire contents of a 2TB drive in well under 4 minutes, and ADATA just happens to offer this drive in capacities up to 2TB.
