Unprecedented speed in small form factors is provided by the compact Power to ADATA Legend 970 PRO and SC720 External SSD, which win two good design awards.
Two winners of the Japan Institute of Design Promotion's 2024 Good Design Awards were announced today by ADATA Technology, the leading memory module and flash memory manufacturer in the world. The ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO PCIe Gen5 SSD and SC720 External SSD not only won awards for their innovative designs, but they also offer unparalleled speed and performance in a remarkably small package. The sophisticated ADATA Legend 970 PRO may be fitted into smaller PC setups without compromising other components, while the SC720 is the smallest external SSD currently on the market.Gen5 SSD LEGEND 970 PRO PCIe
Take Your Creativity to the Next Level
Using the latest PCIe Gen5 x4 communication interface, the ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO conforms to the NVMe 2.0 standard and supports the latest AMD and Intel platforms. It produces animation or visuals with unprecedented ease.Unrestricted Performance
What is the duration required for a file to load? The ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO is twice as fast as PCIe Gen4 SSDs and eight times quicker than standard Gen3 SSDs, with a sequential read/write speed of 14,000/11,000 MB per second. It is fully backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 systems. Complete each task in a few of seconds!Active Cooling Simplifies the Creation Process
Does your computer's overheating cause its performance to lag? The ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO uses a heatsink that resembles a double-layer extruded aluminum fin! This hollow air duct has an integrated micro fan to speed up heat discharge after segregating hot and cold air. This unique "active cooling" significantly reduces drive temperature by up to 20% when compared to fanless heat sinks. You have a well-functioning air conditioning system!Reduce the Hassle and Do More
Cable management and complicated setups are a tremendous nuisance! The built-in fan of the ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO doesn't require a separate power source, and the SSD starts up as soon as it is placed into the M.2 slot. Simplifying complexity is the wisest course of action.QuiKTIPS: Active cooling is the key to reliable performance
Why is active cooling required? High-speed PCIe 5.0 transmission generates heat that standard heatsinks can no longer dissipate effectively, and high temperatures will affect the speed at which data is read and written. Furthermore, the system will breakdown in a matter of seconds if heat is allowed to build up uncontrolled. The ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO's active heat dissipation has been investigated and enhanced using a number of thermal models. It can withstand high temperatures while maintaining steady performance, even while operating at maximum speed for prolonged periods of time.QuiKTIPS: Examining active cooling processes
What is the active cooling process? Active cooling uses a metal heat dissipater and a heat spreader that are tightly bonded to transport heat from the SSD upward to double-layered aluminum fins. An embedded fan draws cold air from the nameplate's perforations and directs it into the upper part of the aluminum fins. As hot air rises and cold air falls, hot and cold air collide, and the fan's rapid rotation quickly dissipates the heat from the two sides of the aluminum fins. This design provides superior heat dissipation than fanless heatsinks.Large Files Are Overcome by Superior Chips
The SSD uses a variety of data security and error correction methods to greatly boost TBW (Total Bytes Written) and endurance to meet high load requirements, and the ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO has an ultra-large capacity of up to 4TB thanks to carefully selected 232-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory.Beyond and Beyond Excellence
The SLC caching technique and a DRAM cache buffer are features of the ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO. 4K random read/write can increase the efficiency of multi-file processing by up to 1,800K/1,300K IOPS. The SSD also employs sophisticated encryption techniques, such as TCG OPAL and the LDPC (Low Density Parity Check Code) error correcting technology, to ensure file security and data transfer accuracy.ADATA LEGEND 970 PRO Specs
